TED-ED: Buffalo buffalo buffalo: One-word sentences and how they work - Emma Bryce

The video explores lexical ambiguity, where words can have multiple meanings, leading to complex sentences. Examples include the 'Buffalo' sentence, which uses 'buffalo' as a noun, verb, and proper noun, and the 'ship-shipping' sentence, which plays on the word 'ship' as both a noun and verb. The 'Can-can' sentence further illustrates how words can take on different roles. These examples highlight how language can be confusing due to lexical ambiguities.
