Hey, giggle box!

Guffaw means "to laugh loudly." It's the kind of belly laugh that has no restraints and echoes through a room. The word can be used both as a noun and verb and was likely coined to echo the very sound of that booming laugh. With such joyful origins, it's no surprise that people often say laughter — especially a good guffaw — is the best medicine!
