Go is indeed the shortest sentence, it has a verb and a subject. "Go" being the verb and "you" (understood) being the subject.

Go is a sentence, the subject is you and is implied, and the predicate is "go".

yea, there's lots of sentences in English that are shorter than "I am." "Go" is one.. "Die" "Yes" "No" just to name a few.. as explained above by others the subject is not needed.. it's understood..
this is a stupid blog
'Go' is not a complete sentence in the English language, as it does not have a simple subject. That goes for 'Yes' and 'No' as well. 'I am' is, infact the shortest sentence in the English language.
The 57 on Heinz ketchup bottles represents the number of varieties of pickles the company once had and When you die your hair still grows for a couple of months... that would be weird lol♥
actually, when you die, your hair doesn't still grow, it's just a result of your skin shrinking and shrivelling up, due to lack of water.
Im a mineful of facts ;)
The word Colgate is not "hang yourself" in spanish. The correct conjugation would be cuelgate from the verb colgar.
oh wow!this is, like, so damn AWESOME! cool..i mean i have never heard any of this stuff anywhere...most of the interesting facts we read are quite old and we 've heard them again and again..but this is just too amazing..i cant especially get over the one about chopping onions while chewing gum...in fact, im going to go try it now.. :)
i happen to know spanish, but never noticed the colgate thing.
pigs don't get orgasms.
only humans and dolphins do.
Go. is the smallest full sentence in the English Dictionary
Everything that can produce sperm/semen has an orgasm. Humans and Dolphins are the only creatures that have sex for the pleasure of having an orgasm
Only humans and dolphins have sex for pleasure. As far as orgasms go, the pig has it made
no no no, pigs do have orgasms, its only dolphins and humans that have sex for pleasure.... Lions mate up to 50 times a day....
then where do all the baby piglets come from?!
Any of you who posted comments got them from other fact sites lol. An colgate in Spanish is still colgate. :p
what about "i do"
It says the shortest sentence is "I am."
But off the top of my head, I realize that "Go!" is shorter. Nice try though...
cool facts lol ive got 1 but im not sure if its true its there are 3 golf balls on the moon ?? weird aye?
Bonobos have sex for pleasure
Did you know Woman blink more than Men ?
I am is in fact the shortest PROPER sentence in the English language. Considering the fact a proper sentence needs a subject and a predicate. 'I' [subject] is stating who or what the sentence is about, and 'am' [predicate] tells about I. Saying the word or demand 'Go' is a sentence is just like saying 'run' or 'talk' is a sentence. Go is saying what to do. So I, think that you are very wrong. I think 'Grow Up' would also not be considered a full complete and proper English sentence, only because it is not stating who or what needs to or is going to grow up.
