Well actually no, I only got 7/8 and didn’t have the capitalization correct. But I appreciate your support, not only in tone but also in source material
Apparently there’s nothing special about 8 buffalos; any sentence that consists solely of the word buffalo repeated is grammatically correct. Also as an idiot on this subject I can confidently tell you that as long as you throw some lowercase buffalos in there nobody is going to notice.
Struggling to see it really making sense as a sentence with more than 5. Reading the example doesn’t really seem like a proper sentence either. Replacing buffalo with the 3 different meanings of the word for the full sentence doesn’t really seem like a sentence. “Bison intimidate intimidate bison” specifically, why is intimidate repeated? Also why the extra “Buffalonian bison” at the start.

[(Buffalonian bison) (Buffalonian bison intimidate)] intimidate (Buffalonian bison).
At least this easily makes sense - Buffalonian bison intimidate Buffalonian bison, but that just gives you buffalo repeated 5 times.
Buffalonian buffalo [who] Buffalonian buffalo bully, bully Buffalonian buffalo
for me splitting the groups made the sentence make sense: NJ people NY people bully, bully NY people
You & @basis@sh.itjust.works — thank you, very nice!
Ahh, that makes more sense now.
It helps somewhat to replace “Buffalonian buffalo” with “people”:
