    Nah, it’s referring to the first space by grouping the first and second words, “Pig” and “And,” and then referring to the second space by grouping the second and third words, “And” and “Whistle.”

        “The Pig And Whistle” asked a sign writer to make a new sign.

        I want more space between “Pig” and “And”

        and

        [more space between] “And” and “Whistle”

          Ovahea’s comment as I copy and paste is

          Pig and And and And and Whistle”.

          So if you remove the bonus ands, it becmes “Pig And And Whistle”.

            But as someone else pointed out it’s the same “and”. The sign has three words on it. Between the words are spaces. How many spaces are there? What on either edge of each space?
