friday quick quiz

Schofield · 22 Dec 2006 at 21:24

Can anyone think of a sentence in which the word 'and' appears consecutively five times (there may be punctuation) yet the sentence is still grammatically correct English?

Not a trick question, it can be done

NeptuneUK · 22 Dec 2006 at 21:26

I don't get it.

it comes in flavours of cheese and onion, salt and vinegar, fish and chips, sweet and sour and cheese and chive?

There's 6

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?

While possibly under the influence, Schofield shouted "AND AND AND AND AND"

the word "consecutive" is kinda the important part there btw Melm0

Schofield · 22 Dec 2006 at 21:31

nope no winners yet.....consecutively means one after the other

So, ........and and and and and
