| > So you don't know what a new yorker is? I don't know what a "yorker" is, never mind a new one. To be fair though, I'm guess you meant one of these two; either a "New Yorker" (citizen of the state of New York), or a "New Yorker" (citizen of the city of New York, New York). Or would that second one be a "New York, New Yorker?" ------------------------------------------------------- For example: The new new New Yorker was new to New York, New York. New New York is known for it's saturation with new New Yorkers. Now I know that would be a bit nuanced, but nevertheless I knew you as a new New Yorker of "The New New York" (New York) would find it relevant. I just didn't know if you knew that yet. ------------------------------------------------------- Related...? "Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo" "... is a grammatically correct sentence in American English, often presented as an example of how homonyms and homophones can be used to create complicated linguistic constructs through lexical ambiguity and the usage of homophony and homonymy." "More easily decoded, though semantically equivalent, would be: Buffalo from Buffalo...
whom other buffalo from Buffalo bully...
[themselves] bully buffalo from Buffalo." (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buffalo_buffalo_Buffalo_buffal...) |
