woW,you gave a rather difficult tongue twister...i hardly bite my tongue when speak that above.it is real impossible to do the tongue twister fast,be careful your tongue...

[B-T]

when it comes to tonge twisters i suck

[icemarle]

Great, so you got some Pinoy ones!

Here's a word in Filipino that's a tongue twister by itself:

nakakapagpabagabag

That's right, it's a real word here. It means distraughting (I think)... some words are pretty deep here.. Hehe... If you're Pinoy, you must know this. And you'll get a laugh trying it out. But... if you're not a Filipino, you might not know how to pronounce the vowels...

[electriic ink]

Here's a few...

- Feed the Food, find fine feed to feed fine Food.
- Unique New York, New York unique (repeat 5 times)

That's all I know that haven't been said...

I've said them pretty fast too, the English ones listed so far by everyone anyway, and the only ones really giving me trouble are your two ones, the one about the zither and the one about the sick sheik. I'm starting to suspect everyone has a tongue weakness, and that mine has to do with x sound. I think I'll compose you a tongue twister right now, let's see how you guys do on it

Quiver at the clever livery worker's lisping wranglings

I might add a line later if I feel like it, that's just one off the top of my head See how you do with that one

There are my 2 favorite tounge twisters!

[Tks]

There was one that my teacher gave to use back in the 4th or 5th grade. It goes something like this.

The undertaker undertook to undertake an undertaking.
The undertaking that the undertaker undertook to undertake,
was the hardest undertaking that the undertaker ever undertook to undertake.

There's another that in Urdu/Hindi it goes something like this.

peet ount ki ounchi
poonch ount ki neechi

I memorized the first one so it wasn't really that hard for me but this one really twists my tongue.

GRR! People already took "toy boats" and "unique New York", some of my favorites.

Nice reference with "Moses Supposes"!

Okay, try that one song from "Pirates of Penzance"... whatever it's called where the one dude sings at 2498345 words/minute.

[iGuest]

Dear Team,

Could you add this complete tongue twister to your website?

How much wood could a woodchuck, chuck, if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

He would chuck, he would. As much as he could and chuck as much as a woodchuck could

If a woodchuck could chuck wood.
