Oh the shame!! Asking you to come up with a grammatically correct sentence, and missing the word correct.

Or,Not, Nand (not And), and And and And-And and And-Nand would be Boolerian Expresions of the first and second order.

It would help if your question was grammatically correct to begin with. The pub sign answers are the most common for this very old brain teaser.

Yes....very, very old question.
A pub sign "Fox and Hounds" where the spacing is different between the words
The difference between the word fox and and and and and hounds is different
Its a bit of a cheat because its using the word "and" as a quote and a joining word.

A sentence with five consecutive ands cannot be grammatical. It would be a run on sentence and that is frowned on in writing.

That's such an old question -my grandmother used to ask me when I was a kid.
With her, the pub was called the pig and whistle, and the new sign writer had done the sign wrong so there was too much space between "PIG" and "AND and "AND" and "WHISTLE"

I can beat Laura - 11 hads in a row
James and John both wrote a sentence, for their English class. John wrote "Father had had his breakfast". James wrote "Father had his breakfast". For their composition, James got 7/10. John got 8/10
So, John, where James had had 'had', had had 'had had'. 'Had had' had had the better mark.

The sign in my local pub called the dog and duck looked wrong. In the writing, there was not enough space between dog and and and and and duck, do it just looked like one word. dogandduck!
Sorry, bet you thought you had me beat!

No but I can do it with HAD 6 times. Talking about using the
phrase...HAD HAD in a composition.
Where I Had had, had had, had had been right.
Are you giving the answer to this one?...............

There may have been something wrong with the man, he kept mumbling,"and and and and and" to himself as he rode the bus.
