Shakespeare coined it.
Whoever coined the term “coined the term”, coined the term “coined the term”
Somewhere at Microsoft there is, presumably a Teams Team team.
New
so, whoever coined the term “coined the term”, coined the term “coined the term”
even bash is more precise than human language

Buffalo buffalo buffalo, etc
…for any natural number of repetitions of “buffalo”, no less.
a good way to teach both a weird case in English and a common algorithm in information science at the same time, if one wanted to do that in a STEAM course
My favorite thing about tautologies is how tautological they are.
Amazing; the features I like the most about the things I like are also what I like about the most about them. Truly, you and I have our similarities in common.
Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo Buffalo or something
Mushroom mushroom?
Badger, badger, badger, badger.
Snake! A snake! Oh, it’s a snake!
Well actually no, I only got 7/8 and didn’t have the capitalization correct. But I appreciate your support, not only in tone but also in source material
Apparently there’s nothing special about 8 buffalos; any sentence that consists solely of the word buffalo repeated is grammatically correct. Also as an idiot on this subject I can confidently tell you that as long as you throw some lowercase buffalos in there nobody is going to notice.
Struggling to see it really making sense as a sentence with more than 5. Reading the example doesn’t really seem like a proper sentence either. Replacing buffalo with the 3 different meanings of the word for the full sentence doesn’t really seem like a sentence. “Bison intimidate intimidate bison” specifically, why is intimidate repeated? Also why the extra “Buffalonian bison” at the start.
[(Buffalonian bison) (Buffalonian bison intimidate)] intimidate (Buffalonian bison).
At least this easily makes sense - Buffalonian bison intimidate Buffalonian bison, but that just gives you buffalo repeated 5 times.
(Buffalonian bison) (Buffalonian bison intimidate)] intimidate (Buffalonian bison).
[(Albany cattle) (Utica bison bully)] intimidate (Syracuse oxen)
[The] Albany cattle (that Utica bison bully) intimidate Syracuse oxen.
In this sentence, “cattle” are the subject, and “oxen” are the object. The verb is “intimidate”. Everything else is some form of adjective modifying “cattle” or “oxen”
We can go further:
[The] Albany Cattle (that Utica Bison bully) intimidate [the] Syracuse oxen (that Poughkeepsie yak deceive).
Cattle are still the subject; Oxen are still the object.
The cattle (which are bullied by the bison) intimidate the oxen (which are deceived by the yak)
Moving on:
[The] Albany cattle (that Utica bison [that Buffalo buffalo buffalo] bully) intimidate [the] Syracuse oxen [that Poughkeepsie yak deceive].
The cattle are still intimidating the oxen. Which cattle? The cattle that are bullied by bison. Which bison? The bison that are buffaloed by buffalo.
Which oxen? The oxen that are deceived by the yak.
The buffalo buffalo the bison; the bison bully the cattle; the cattle intimidate the oxen. Which oxen? The oxen which are deceived by the yak.
Buffalonian buffalo [who] Buffalonian buffalo bully, bully Buffalonian buffalo
for me splitting the groups made the sentence make sense: NJ people NY people bully, bully NY people
Ahh, that makes more sense now.
It helps somewhat to replace “Buffalonian buffalo” with “people”:
People (that other) people intimidate, intimidate (other) people.
Will Will Smith smith? Will Smith will smith.
oh, i miss word avalanches
Wouldn’t the sentence ‘I want to put a hyphen between the words Fish and And and And and Chips in my Fish-and-Chips sign’ have been clearer if quotation marks had been placed before Fish, and between Fish and and, and and and And, and And and and, and and and And, and And and and, and and and Chips, as well as after Chips?
We must go deeper!
Yes.
I’ve read and so many times now it doesn’t look like a word anymore

“And, per se, and”
This why we need term limits
For the confused:
"Whoever coined the term ‘CTM’, coined the term, ‘CTM’!"(“CTM” being the term, “coined the term”.)
(Please note that “term” is not an accurate word. A potentially better word would be “idiom”. Thank you for reading.)That’s streets ahead
star wars star wars, cool cool cool. you understand.
this could use some punctuation marks but its funny anyway if not a bit redundant
