Most Common Tongue Twisters List
TONGUE TWISTERS
In English, a tongue twister is a statement or group of words that are difficult to pronounce correctly. Children enjoy tongue twisters and will dare their pals to say them quickly many times in a row. Tongue twisters are a fun technique for English learners to practice on one or two consonants at a time to perfect their pronunciation. Slowly say the tongue twister at first, then attempt to speed it up. Once you’ve mastered a tongue twister, try saying it again or three times in succession for a more difficult task.
