man eating shark... (this is pretty cool and fucked up)

IP:

So I was blazed as fuck the other day right, and I started thinking about grammar in my head and getting philosophical and I realised something. Check it out it's pretty cool and fucked up

It's one phrase, the same words, but it means two opposite things.

here's the phrase

"Man eating shark"

Now judging by the way you use your grammer, this can either mean a shark that is capable of eating a man, for instance: "LOOK OUT, IN THE WATER, IT'S A MAN EATING SHARK!!! :O"

But then it can also mean "I went to a restaurant the other day and saw a man, eating shark"

I dunno, I find it cool... But how do you decide what means what?

I figured "man-eating shark" would be a shark that eats men
and "man, eating shark" would be a man that eats shark
so what would "man eating shark" with no dash or no comma mean?

Say I have a story and I write "He had a dream of a man eating shark" what would that mean?

Iunno... the english language is fucked... then I smoked more and started getting too deep thinking about the brain capacity it would take for someone to be able to create a language as sophisticated as the ones we use, it's incredible, the thought proccess you'd need to create a whole working language like that... i can't understand how humans evolved like this.... we're amazing creatures man

Ok? So have I, I just re-explored my thoughts in a deeper and more intelligent way because i'm smarter now then I was at 10.

By bringing this up, you sould instead stfu and re-think what you thought when you were 10 cuz your conclusions would probably be different.

Oh... oh wait no.. i forgot you haven't evolved from that 10 year old mentality yet =/

you're a fucking moron. Language in its own essence is deep as fuck. The way we form sounds, formulate them into words, then sentances, then use grammar and tones to express and communicate is awesome. And yea it was a high ramble haha, I figured that'd be obvious as I was talking about when I was high, and high while I made this thread.

See you were exagerating about the 10 year old shit because no way at 10 years old would anyone try to explain to you, or would you figure out yourself, that a frace like "dog eating chicken" could mean two opposite things depending how grammar is used.

I'm talking about language son, I've been impressed by languages for a while, since I was a kid. How many languages do you speak? English and that's it? Cool... I almost speak 5 now

And maybe I didn't write it in the most deep and complex way, but i'm obviously not gonna start ranting about my theories and idealogies of life and expression and communication between humans. But I do look at languages and their bounderies and possibilities in a new light now that I am older.

Later hater, keep being broke and snorting coke

Find an area to build your sand castle. It is recommended to build the castle where the sand is wet, but not too far away from where the waves wash up on shore. Level out a pad of wet sand with your hand. The pad should be slightly bigger than your sand castle will be.
Scoop some wet sand into a bucket. Fill it up almost to the top, and make sure it is packed in tight. Turn it upside down on your smooth patch of wet sand. With one hand, tap the bottom of the bucket, and with the other, hold the bucket still. Lift the bucket up. The wet sand inside should have taken shape of the bucket. The wetter the sand the better.
Repeat step 2 as many times as you desire. Try to arrange the castles in a sort of shape.
Collect some shells. Stick them on your castle for decoration.
With your shovel, dig a moat around the castles. Pad the sand in the moat very tightly. Get your bucket and collect some seawater. Pour the seawater in the moat.
Collect some Sand crabs. You can find sand crabs by digging a hole in the sand at the very edge of the wash from the waves. Allow water to enter the hole, and swish it around. You should see sand crabs darting through the water before they quickly bury themselves in the sand. These crabs will be the people in your castle. They dig though, so you will have to pad the sand around your castle very tightly so they don't escape.
