"I'm a linguist. My job is to make communication simpler. I invented a language with no grammar, no syntax, no ambiguities. In fact, it had only one word: CHICKEN."

Also note the recently published paper on this topic, "Doug Zongker, "Chicken Chicken Chicken: Chicken Chicken", Annals of Improbable Research, 12(5) September-October 2006, 16-21, and the associated presentation.

I don't know where linguists get their ideas from but I wish I had a supplier :-P
