That is the word that is possessed of much authority that can control all of the people, money, and the government.

Features

That can release every power of it on the following sentence.

She said that that that that that boy used was wrong.

You would see the meaning immediately and perfectly if you were an English speaker. Each of the users are, however, is a speaker of other languages: Administrator, Pylorian, Angmogho and Japanese. So I have to explain about this.

The first "that" is a conjunction and makes a noun clause. The second "that" is an adjective, and describe the next "that". And the third "that" is a noun and is "that" as a word "that" itself. I guess you don't have any question so far. And then, the fourth "that" is a relative pronoun and has the third "that" as an antecedent. The fifth "that" and below, specifically "that boy used" is all introduced by the relative pronoun.

It seems that A and B, the best friends[1] will summarize what I stated above in this section by their talking.

A: She said something.
B: What did she say?
A: She said, 'That "that" was wrong.'
B: 'That "that"'? What's that?
A: In detail, 'that "that" that that boy used,'
B: Ah, now I got it.[2]

Now you also understand this, I think.

References

  1. They are the best friends for sure, but just fictionally.
  2. Actually I don't mention that, but I have to say; after their summarizing, they broke up and now live in different place, because A was tired of B's asking questions so many times. Though A blamed it as the only thing she hated, I bet it was no matter what the reason was for her. In short, she just want to break up. Women often do.
