Word "FUNNY" in Spanish

In Spanish we don't have an specific word to translate "funny". Funny is a very commonly used adjective that has multiple meanings in English. In Spanish we used one different adjective for each different meaning
GRACIOSO meaning causing laughter or amusement.
- Don't laugh, it is not funny!
- No te rías, ¡no es gracioso!
- What a funny joke!
- ¡Qué broma tan graciosa!
CÓMICO meaning a person with a sense of humor
- Juan is a funny boy.
- Juan es un chico muy cómico. (we could also use gracioso)
RARO meaning strange and peculiar
- It is smell funny
- Huele raro
The word DIVERTIDO is most commonly used as fun when referring to a person, or a thing.
When referred to a person: It refers to a person fun to hang out with, with sense of humor and, amusing, etc.
- Tu hermana es muy divertida.
- Your sister is very fun.
When referred to a thing: means funny, causing laughter or amusement.
- La película es muy divertida.
- The movie is very funny.
I want to explain a very funny (graciosa) expression in Spanish for
- ¿What is so funny? or - ¿What are you looking at? (when someone staring at you)
The Spanish funniest expression is: - ¿Tengo monos en la cara?
Literally means: "Do I have monkeys on my face?"
