English In Use - 'Ewe Look Familiar'

A selection of headlines from stories in the news. They use English in a way that you might think is intended to confuse but it's all perfectly clear to the native speaker.

'Ewe Look Familiar' is the Daily Mail headline on a story that police in Cumbria lined up 100 sheep, stolen from an auction mart, so that their owners could reclaim them. The headline substituted 'ewe' (a full-grown female sheep) for 'you'.
