August 13, 201015 yr Author I.Already stated, but its not a complete sentence without punctuation.Oh, man. I had to go back to the judges on this one. They came back with a, sh!t I don't know.It's a complete sentence. It makes a statement. Hell I think we found a wiener.
August 13, 201015 yr Author How about this one. All punctuation is implied. lolI just lol'ed at work. People around me are like WTF?
August 13, 201015 yr haha... I was just guessing since "I" was posted and no one added a period to anything. You kept says so close so I assumed that's what was missing. lol

They came back with a, sh!t I don't know.It's a complete sentence. It makes a statement. Hell I think we found a wiener.How is that a sentence? It has a subject but no verb. You can make an argument for "go" by saying that when giving a command the subject is an implied pronoun but how are you going to imply an action by just saying "I"? Putting a period at the end of it doesn't make it a sentence.
August 13, 201015 yr Author Here is what I was looking for:by Agafya ChaseSo we're talking about the shortest complete sentence in English?I proposed a sentence- I? -Yup. If you write it, it is just a letter (I) with a question mark. And if you say it, just an I with a rising tone. Usually this sentence is used by someone to confirm an order referring to him/her.For example, there are only two people in the room. And in the middle of a conversation the other person shout aloud, Go! Another short sentence which in the context means as an order to leave the conversation. I bet with a pair of irritated eyes, confused facial expression, the other person in the room would point his or her own nose and ask I? A letter with this rising tone is a way to ask for confirmation, which means You mean it? Is it really me? I can't hardly believe it!I?. That's the shortest I can get.as seen here:I?
August 13, 201015 yr How about this one. All punctuation is implied. lolDidn't refresh the page to see this before my reply. Yeah, spit out my OJ when I did see it.

August 13, 201015 yr If "I?" is the answer then technically all letters of the alphabet could be used.If I asked which letter am I thinking about?You could answer, "A?" "B?" etc.
August 13, 201015 yr Author If "I?" is the answer then technically all letters of the alphabet could be used.If I asked which letter am I thinking about?You could answer, "A?" "B?" etc. No one ever said there was one right answer. Riddles, got to love'em.
August 13, 201015 yr English does not require a subject for the imperative case. If left out, the subject is generally understood to mean "you." Therefore, almost any one-word verb in the English language can become a grammatically correct one-word sentence when used as a direct command. (Examples: "Stop!" "Go!" "Speak." "Eat.")
