The quick brown fox jumpS over the lazy dog, this is a typist phrase, it helps them learn to type and pick up their speed as it has all the letters of the alphabet.
Going back to your question the fox was after the chicken that had just crossed the road.

Source(s): I am sad enough to go through the entire sentence and look for letters that have been missed out. Or should I just say experience? - How do you think about the answers? You can sign in to vote the answer.
