I have recently read a sentence. I understand the meaning, but just wonder whether it is grammatically correct.

'We can see Shirley individually as the cases not many for these two year end unlike October year end.'

Your comments are appreciated.

I have no idea. It is meaningless as a unit.

I agree - I can't make any sense out of it at all. You said you can understand the meaning, so could you write it using different words to explain it.
