a gem from another tongue twisters thread: Mr. See and Mr. Soar were old friends. See owned a saw and Soar owned a seesaw and a sword. Now, Soar swore he saw See's saw saw Soar's seesaw before See saw Soar, which made Soar sore. Had See seen Soar see See's saw before See saw Soar's seesaw, then See's saw would not have sawed Soar's seesaw, and Soar's sword would not have seared See's knees. But See never saw Soar and Soar's seesaw before Soar saw See's saw, so See's saw sawed Soar's seesaw. It was a shame to let See see Soar so sore just because See's saw sawed Soar's seesaw. When Soar saw how sorely sorry See was, he sewed See's knees and swore to leave the sword on the sea shore.

so a shame such a shapely sash should such shabby stiches show.

how do you do with "vulnerable"?

It's Afrikaans. In most Germanic languages you can string nouns together indefinately, so you can make up really long words that are not really used but are grammatically correct. What the word above means is sort of hard to follow but something like this: media conference announcement of the union of second hand motor salesmen who had a meeting where they decided to go on strike (or something like that, Afrikaans is a bit different from Dutch). If English still had this string-together rule there would be English words of near infinite length. And they would have words like "carsalesmenunion", "trainstationbuildingmanager". In Dutch, not writing them as one word would mess with the grammar and change the meaning.

just being able to READ that humongous word is a real skill!

She said she sold shoppers some super shoddy stuff, and shoplifters she sends to the sheriff. She saves cents since it is good sense to not waste cents because such nonsense would lead to no cents.
