    Sentences where you can use the same word 3 times in a row

    Hey all,

    Funny thing I do when I'm bored that I figured I would share (and see if anyone can contribute!). Can anyone think of sentences where you can use the same word 3 times in a row and still have it make sense? For example:

    Will Will will his team to victory?
    Don't let Rob rob Rob of his dignity.
    Chase, chase Chase around the school yard.
    I bet Bette bet on black.

    Have at it!

    I mean, you're using someone's name as a word, which to mean makes the point kind of moot.

    All of the faith that he had had had had no effect on the outcome of the situation. Now that's a fun one.

    No word begins with because, because, because is a conjunction

    Why stop at 4 "had" when you can get to 11 I think it is.

    Because mine is at least still logical to break down. There's a difference between "Yes, this is legible and able to be understood" and "holy shit let's see how we can exploit and break the English language to make the single most ridiculous sentence in the history of man"

    The following sentence contains 7 identical words in a row and still makes sense:

    "It is true for all that that that that that that that refers to is not the same that that that that refers to."

    That particular sentence was stolen from this web site and it includes a break down of the different parts of grammar to which the words belong : http://www.englishclub.com/ref/esl/P...Thats_2948.htm

    If you are ever bored, there are other interesting things on the site that you can discover about English grammar.

    You can make an entire correct sentence just by using the F word 5 times. F'ing F'ers F'ing F'ing F'ers

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

    Can you believe that; that That attacked that bat!

    "That" is now a ferocious cave-dwelling mammal, a'la Dr. Suess.

    It's cheating, but it's all I could think of!
