Did you know that you left out the word 'know' and the 'I' in 'in' that question?

Do you know, sometime I type too fast and I don't realise that my ipad has not picked up the word?

Besides, you all know what I mean anyway don't you?

Yes, I do. Did you know that Krabo is right and that technically, there have been three 'In's in a row?

Shall I slow down a bit and watch what I type?

And why did all my 'post reply' buttons go missing for several minutes?

How can you be that good at English? And doesn't three ins in a row sound as though it should not make sense?

Have you heard of the following sentence (without punctuation)?

Quote:

James while John had had had had had had had had had had had the approval of the teacher

Do you know how to punctuate the sentence properly so that it makes sense (click here to find out how)?

Yes, don't we get funny results when we mix language with meta-language?
