Would mean about the same as its dutch counterpart:
Als achter vliegen vliegen vliegen, vliegen vliegen vliegen na.

This one doesn't work in any other language as far as I know, but for those learning English*, this sentence is gramatically correct:
Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo
*Apparently only works in US English, for reasons I don't know.
This is how it works:
The sentence can be clarified by substituting the synonym "bison" for the animal "buffalo", "bully" for the verb "buffalo", and "New York" to refer to the state of the city Buffalo:
"New York bison New York bison bully, bully New York bison", or:
"New York bison whom other New York bison bully, themselves bully New York bison".
I kind of understand

Find proper punctuation to the following sentence to give it meaning.
James while John had had had had had had had had had had had a better effect on the teacher.
James while John had had had had had had had had had had had a better effect on the teacher.
I'm wondering, is estonian language maybe also have so much word forms, as finnish?

There're 14, 2 missing and one which Finnish doesn't have. I don't about Hungarian...

James, while John had had "had", had had "had had"; "had had" had had a better effect on the teacher.
The example refers to two students, James and John, who are required by an English test to describe a man who, in the past, had suffered from a cold. John writes "The man had a cold" which the teacher marks as being incorrect, while James writes the correct "The man had had a cold." Since James' answer was right, it had had a better effect on the teacher.
