It's not an exaggeration — Chinese is just amazing!!! Listen to this poem where almost every word is pronounced "yu" (of course with different tones and meanings), yet it still tells a detailed and vivid story:
🔻🔻🔻🔻🔻
Yu Yu wanted to go fishing. He came to my house and found me. He said to me, "I want to go fishing in the shallows of Yushui. Will you go with me?" I replied, "I plan to sell a piece of jade. Yu Yu wants to buy it, so I have to go to his house." So I went to Yu Yu's house together with Yu Yu to meet him and try to sell the jade. Just then, it started to rain heavily. The rainwater flooded Yu Yu’s house. I said to Yu Yu, "I originally planned to go fishing in the shallows of Yushui — should I fish now, or sell the jade?" While taking shelter from the rain at Yu Yu's house, I sold the jade to him. When the rain stopped, Yu Yu and I slowly left Yu Yu's house and went to the shallows of Yushui to go fishing.
