Meanwhile, in English:
Yoo-hoo! Thereau thoroughly thought ‘twas you, Hugh, who threw Theaux through the tough dough trough.
Thou laughed, though! No? He ought not’ve thought aught of it.
Meanwhile, a grammatically correct English sentence:
Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo
Any even number of police is also a complete sentence
Police police.
Police police police police.
Police police police police police police. Etc.
You forgot about 噛み (to bite)
It it a homonym? Or is this due to their different scripts?
These are homophones in Japanese. Same thing as words like their/there/they’re or seas/sees/seize, etc. Words that sound the same but are written differently. The Japanese language has tons of them. Often, the ambiguity around homophones is used as a source of humor, causing misunderstandings between characters in anime/manga or puns that add a layer of humor to an otherwise normal thing to say.
Complete guess, but probably because these are Chinese characters (kanji), which is more phonetic.
Both kinda, they have different scripts because they have so many homophones. Japanese has far fewer phonemes (possible sounds) compared to english, this combined with the fact that you usually can’t have two consonants together without a vowel in between makes it so the amount of possible words is very limited. Because of this if you used just the “phonetic” script hiragana ( each character represents a sound) then it would get confusing since かみ that represents the sound “kami” would be confusing as to what you’re referring to. So they mix in kanji, Chinese characters where a character represents a thing, to distinguish these homophones.
kami kami kami -> Paper hair God
