Struggling to see it really making sense as a sentence with more than 5. Reading the example doesn't really seem like a proper sentence either. Replacing buffalo with the 3 different meanings of the word for the full sentence doesn't really seem like a sentence. "Bison intimidate intimidate bison" specifically, why is intimidate repeated? Also why the extra "Buffalonian bison" at the start.
[(Buffalonian bison) (Buffalonian bison intimidate)] intimidate (Buffalonian bison).
At least this easily makes sense - Buffalonian bison intimidate Buffalonian bison, but that just gives you buffalo repeated 5 times.
It helps somewhat to replace “Buffalonian buffalo” with “people”:
People (that other) people intimidate, intimidate (other) people.

Buffalonian buffalo [who] Buffalonian buffalo bully, bully Buffalonian buffalo
for me splitting the groups made the sentence make sense:
NJ people NY people bully, bully NY people -
All of the faith that he had had had had no effect on the outcome of his life.
James while John had had had had had had had had had had had a better effect on the teacher.

Badger, badger, badger, badger.
Snake! A snake! Oh, it's a snake!
-
Buffalo buffalo buffalo, etc
...for any natural number of repetitions of "buffalo", no less.

Buffalonian buffalo [who] Buffalonian buffalo bully, bully Buffalonian buffalo
for me splitting the groups made the sentence make sense:

[(Albany cattle) (Utica bison bully)] intimidate (Syracuse oxen)
[The] Albany cattle (that Utica bison bully) intimidate Syracuse oxen.
In this sentence, "cattle" are the subject, and "oxen" are the object. The verb is "intimidate". Everything else is some form of adjective modifying "cattle" or "oxen"
We can go further:
[The] Albany Cattle (that Utica Bison bully) intimidate [the] Syracuse oxen (that Poughkeepsie yak deceive).
Cattle are still the subject; Oxen are still the object.
The cattle (which are bullied by the bison) intimidate the oxen (which are deceived by the yak)
Moving on:
[The] Albany cattle (that Utica bison [that Buffalo buffalo buffalo] bully) intimidate [the] Syracuse oxen [that Poughkeepsie yak deceive].
The cattle are still intimidating the oxen. Which cattle? The cattle that are bullied by bison. Which bison? The bison that are buffaloed by buffalo.
Which oxen? The oxen that are deceived by the yak.
The buffalo buffalo the bison; the bison bully the cattle; the cattle intimidate the oxen. Which oxen? The oxen which are deceived by the yak.

For the confused:
"Whoever coined the term 'CTM', coined the term, 'CTM'!"("CTM" being the term, "coined the term".)
(Please note that "term" is not an accurate word. A potentially better word would be "idiom". Thank you for reading.) -

My favorite thing about tautologies is how tautological they are.
Amazing; the features I like the most about the things I like are also what I like about the most about them. Truly, you and I have our similarities in common.

Wouldn't the sentence 'I want to put a hyphen between the words Fish and And and And and Chips in my Fish-and-Chips sign' have been clearer if quotation marks had been placed before Fish, and between Fish and and, and and and And, and And and and, and and and And, and And and and, and and and Chips, as well as after Chips?
We must go deeper!

Yoy should come join the tautology club. Just remember these three rules:
- The first rule of tautology club is the first rule of tautology club
- The second rule of tautology club is not the first rule of tautology club
- If this is your first night at tautology club, you haven't been here before
