Even native English speakers can find them difficult. However, they are a fun way to practise your pronunciation. Practise saying tongue-twisters out loud. Instead of concentrating on the speed, try saying them slowly and correctly.
Here are some other great tongue-twisters…
- Nine nice night nurses nursing nicely.
- Three gray geese in the green grass grazing. Gray were the geese and green was the grass.
- Sam's shop stocks short spotted socks
- Long legged ladies last longer.
- Red lorry, yellow lorry, red lorry, yellow lorry Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled pepper.
- Did Peter Piper pick a peck of pickled pepper? If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled pepper, where's the peck of pickled pepper Peter Piper picked?
