Ambiguity

science_questioning

Today, we have been learning about ambiguity.  We looked at sentences which have double meanings – e.g. ‘I saw her duck’ (Did you see her pet duck, or did she see her bow down?)  Do you know any ambiguous sentences?  When Mr R went home after school and watched the news (after watching Topsy and Tim!) he saw the news headline ‘Bath Bomb’.  (Was there an article about a world war two bomb that had been found in Bath or was there an article about something which is put into the bath to make bubbles?)  Do you know any other ones?  Add these below by typing a comment here.  Two team points will be given to the person with the most ambiguous statements.
