Buffalo buffalo buffalo...



In this episode, Amanda and Dave talk about sentences that are often made up of one, or a few, repeating words. Ridiculous as they are hilarious, they are actually grammatically correct!  




Some examples talked about in the episode are:

1. Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo.

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

3. A ship-shipping ship ships shipping-ships.

4. Police police Police police police police Police police.

5. Rose rose to put rose roes on her rows of roses.
