From a forum I found today such tongue-twisting excercises.
Take a look at them <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif">

For beginners:

Three witches watch three swatch watches. Which witch watches which swatch watch?

For intermediates:

Three switched witches watch three Swatch watch switches. Which switched witch watches which Swatch watch switch?

For Pros:

 Three swiss witch-bitches, which wished to be switched swiss witch-bitches, watch three swiss Swatch watch switches. Which swiss witch-bitch, which wishes to be a switched swiss witch-bitch, wishes to watch which swiss Swatch watch switch?


Can you speak it fast? <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_wink.gif">

Toy boat.

I think there's something in the way the human brain processes blah blah blah, I'm spouting second hand crap. Just try to say 'toy boat' repeatedly, you'll sound like an idiot after saying it correctly a few times.

Off topic a bit, but not.

When I was a child I had a severe speech impediment. I had drastic problems saying simple words like "Fender". It always came out "Thender"

I have since taught myself to control this but so many never do. I feel for them.

OK, I cried about myself now you can continue with your word sleuths.




There is no history until something happens, then there is.

Let's do it multilingual:

Im Fichtendickicht nicken dicke Fichten t?chtig

Sieben schweizer Schwertschei?er schw*ei?en schwitzend schweizer Schwerte

Sieben Zwerge machen Handstand. 3 im Wandschrank, 4 am Sandstrand

And the worst: Brautkleid bleibt Brautkleid und Blaukraut bleibt Blaukraut


*: Sorry.... Schei?en means to take a leak.....

I guess so. I could read a french tounge twister very eassily. While a french exchangestudent faild, totally.

It went like "chache la tasse de la tasse casser? et sache cassee de la tasses cacher"


These twisters are not very "hard" but sometimes funny things turn you when you say it wrong. <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif">
