I include two examples of weird ambiguities in English. I've personally run across each of these at least once.
- Jennifer is 18, has two brothers, aged 21 and 27. She has no other siblings. Does Jennifer have a younger brother?
- Ten marbles were initially painted black. One marble was re-painted white. An hour later, every other marble was re-painted red. How many marbles were re-painted red?
