It's great to see such creativity in these sentences, unfortunately no words have been guessed right yet.

Thanks for the hint LST6, here is another:
I'm going to give you a word. The 'H' is Hold's
(which 'H' is for you to determine) :devil

Thanks, Jim

Hey, that's two words! :) Anyway ..

"This hold's excellent," cited Iris. "Traveling yodeling belowstairs, entering 'Neather's empire! Advancing towards happiness!"

It makes sense if you don't think about it too much.

This hold's extremely comlicated. It tires your brain. Everyone needs extra alcohol to help.

It doesn't have to be. For example,

This hold's elephant cautiously invites travelling yodels because everyone needs eleven Advil tablets hurriedly.

[What a genius elephant... :-O]

all wrong but quoted kie's phrase because the is one thing it must follow, the acronym is still one phrase, so what are the dots searching there?

I know this is hard, trust me it was hard coming up with the phrase. I highlighted kie's response because one of the words is a form of a word in my sentence.

Time for another hint:
Think about the bar.

Remember the rules have changed for this puzzle, and you can guess more than once.

James got another one! Team!

This Hold's Expected Completicion Is This Year Because E N Expects A Team Helping.

Now this are enough clues, now I won't say anything till the correct phrase appears (otherwise it would be unfair to give the points to the person that guesses the last word)
