"Professor Ernest Brennecke of Columbia" wrote a sentence that can be made to have eight different meanings by changing ONE WORD in all possible positions in the sentence:
The Message:
1. ONLY I hit him in the eye yesterday. (No one else did)
2. I ONLY hit him in the eye yesterday. (Did not slap him)
3. I hit ONLY him in the eye yesterday. (I did not hit others)
4. I hit him ONLY in the eye yesterday. (I did not hit outside the eye)
5. I hit him in ONLY the eye yesterday. (Not other organs)
6. I hit him in the ONLY eye yesterday. (He doesn't have another eye)
7. I hit him in the eye ONLY yesterday. (Not today)
8. I hit him in the eye yesterday ONLY. (Did not wait for today)
The Sentence is - "I hit him in the eye yesterday."
That word is "ONLY" and the sentences are as follow.
