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?

Tongue Twisters
I like tongue twisters:
1. She sells sea-shells on the sea shore.
2. Whether the weather be fine
Or whether the weather be not
Whether the weather be cold
Or whether the weather be hot
We'll weather the weather
Whatever the weather
Whether we like it or not.

Twelve twins twirled twelve twigs.
The two-twenty-two train tore through the tunnel.
Betty Botter bought a bit of
Betty Botter bought a bit of butter
The butter Betty Botter bought was a bit bitter
And made her batter bitter.
But a bit of better butter makes better batter.
So Betty Botter bought a bit of better butter
Making Betty Botter's bitter batter better.
