Least long-winded speech of Cicero
You must log in or register to comment.
I know this joke as about a German mathematician giving a lecture. Tension grew as he spoke. Finally, he drew to a close. After nearly two hours, he said twelve consecutive verbs, and then the audience finally understood what the hell he was talking about.
And then when they get to the verb: “oh great he’s talking about Catiline again.”
Well shit, that brings back memories…
brings back memories…
of 5 minutes ago when the SOV opposition finally finished their sentence
My native language is V2 SOV. I’m playing both teams and I’m always losing
Mine is still on version 1.0. Jk. What’s V2?
If this is serious, V2 is verb second. So in main clauses, the finite verb is in second position while the rest comes at the end.
Where were you when the Goths sacked Rome?
