I never said she stole my money.
This fun sentence takes on seven different meanings depending on which word is emphasized:
[I] never said she stole my money. — Someone else said it.
I [never] said she stole my money. — I didn't say it.
I never [said] she stole my money. — I only implied it.
I never said [she] stole my money. — I said someone did, not necessarily her.
I never said she [stole] my money. — I considered it borrowed.
I never said she stole [my] money. — Only that she stole money, not necessarily my own.
I never said she stole my [money]. — She stole something of mine, not my money.
While this trick works for plenty of other sentences as well, this one’s short and easy to understand.
