Hey, I've just realised that the following is a valid sentence:
I made myself myself myself.

(It has the same structure as "I made him better myself". It means "I made myself what I am now, and I did it all by myself").

Can we come up with other sentences with lots of repeated words? (Excluding the words "and" and "had", please).

"Is is is?"

"Is the word 'is' the word 'is'?" Emotion: smile

Curiously, without the question mark, it forms the answer to that very question.

Better!

"Is is is, or or or?"

I'm sure I could think of one that wasn't just a linguistic trick if I tried... Emotion: smile

"The teacher said that that that that that student wrote was used wrong."

Cool, but you could have got away with putting an extra "that" in there.

The teacher said that that "that that" that that student wrote was used wrong.

This one is even better:

Larry, where Joe had had "had", had had "had had." "Had had" had had the teacher's approval.

Yeah, but in my first post I said:
(Excluding the words "and" and "had", please)

And, of course, the reason I said that was because the whole point was for us to make new ones up, not just quote the classics. Citing that one is a bit like playing "Stainway to Heaven" in a music shop. We've all heard it before.

Be inventive!

Oops... I've just read that over, sorry.

The sign said Fish, and, Chips. There is no need for a comma between fish and and and and and chips. The previous sentence would be even more confusing with a comma between fish and and, and and and and, and and and and, and and and and, and and and and, and and and chips.

So there!
