English is awesome!(Kinda old)

And put punctuation in this to make it a grammatically correct sentence:

James while John had had had had had had had had had had had a better effect on the teacher.

=D

But yeah, English is crazy. xD
 
The lost lost lost it. <---grammatically correct, fear it!!!
[grammar lesson]For repeated words, it needs a noun, verb, adjective, and for infinite repeats, an adverb.[/grammar lesson]
 
On a vaguely related note:

"To be or not to be, that is the question; whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune" is an exact anagram of "In one of the Bard's best-thought-of tragedies, our insistent hero, Hamlet, queries on two fronts about how life turns rotten", which is a description of the play Hamlet, from which that soliloquy comes.

James, while John had had "had", had had "had had". "had had" had had a better effect on the teacher.

I think.
 
^ Actually the first period needs to be a semicolon. Since otherwise it's two sentences, not one.

... That's effin' creepy.

Mike, I went through the first quote to see whether or not it was an actual anagram of the second. Something's off, actually; while the second quote has two d's the first only has one.

Congtrats =D But yeah, needs to be a semi-colon where the period is. So it's 'James, while John had had "had", had had "had had"; "had had" had had a better effect on the teacher.'

I can already parse that.  8)  "Had had had had had had had had had had had" is just "to have" in a billion layers of pluperfect, and "James while John" could do with some commas, but could still be interpreted as "James during his time as John".

"in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows"

I make it two :3
 
English has too many exceptions in it.
The words 'and', 'the', 'a' & 'an', 'of', 'in', they tend to get passed over a lot. :3

Like in the sentence "Finished files are the results of years of scientific study combined with the experience of years".

Most people only spot half the Fs because when they read it the F in "of" is pronounced as a V.
 
Yep. Another fun thing with the language. It is psosblie to raed a sntecene taht has its leterts mxeid up.

Then there's the infinite negatives; however, it's supposedly grammatically incorrect.

I do not not not not not not not not not not post too much.
 
Eh, I prefer the Spanish version of the buffalo thing myself. "¿Cómo como? ¿Cómo "cómo como"? ¡Como como como!" In English, "How do I eat? What do you mean, 'How do I eat'? I eat how I eat." x3 I don't know why I like that so much...
