I can only imagine the frustration involved when learning English as a second language! A complete brain workout!?
It wasn't fun...
@Kafir See...that's what I'm sayin ?
FIVE IN A ROW
When writing the phrase 'fish and chips' you should leave a space between 'fish' and 'and', and 'and' and chips.
ELEVEN IN A ROW
A teacher asked two of her pupils, John and James, to show the use of the past tense by describing a man who had recovered from a cold.
John suggested, 'He had a cold.'
The teacher wasn't entirely happy, as John's offering did not indicate that the cold was fully in the past and recovered from.
James suggested, 'He had had a cold.'
The teacher was more impressed with James's offering. In other words:-
James, while John had had 'had', had had 'had had'; 'had had' had had a better response from the teacher.
I got a headache reading that sentence.
A comma would help with the grammar; but yes, words make sense.
(I probably would have dropped one after the second had, but that's just me)
This is really why English is so much fun. The author of The Chaos was a Dutchman, the writer and traveller Dr Gerard Nolst Trenité. Scroll all the way to the bottom for the poem. For best effect read it aloud. Enjoy. [web.archive.org]
