the Colorless green ideas sleep furiously is a sentence i learned in linguistics. It's a perfectly grammatical sentence but the semantic meaning does not match. You can't have colorless green, ideas cant be colors, ideas cant sleep, and how can one possibly sleep furiously??
all one big puzzle, but it's syntactic structure is A-Ok
