#1

I thought it would be fun to start a new topic like this. ;-o So, got any tongue twisters? Post them here! :smiley:
And I’ll bet sooner or later someone will go like: :open_mouth:

  1. (the classic one) Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers. A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked. If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers, where’s the pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?

  2. How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

  3. This is the sixth sister.

  4. say “Toy Boat” several times. if you’re not tongue twisted yet, you’re either not trying enough or really good at saying these.

  5. Sorry Shakesphere’s sheep is sheared.

Have fun!

Here is a couple I learned in my High School Drama Class.

What a to do to die today at a minute or to too to.
A distinctly difficult thing to say, but harder yet to do.

A big black bear bit a big black bug and the big black bug bled blood.
While a blue black bug bled blue black blood, the red black bug bled blue.

You know you need unique New York

Toy Boat

Red leather, yellow leather

She sells seashells by the seashore

A sick sixth sheik’s sixth sheep sick.

(Have fun with these)

The only one I know is saying ‘unique New York’ over and over again. It becomes impossible!

Some of these are really cool. :laughing:

#8

Really good ones, guys! Keep 'em coming!

Here’s one I made up:

The angel’s ankle at an angle
(yeah, I know, doesn’t really make sense)

Not that I’m trying to be a show-off here, but I could do the classic ‘Peter Piper’ story very fast, and I always say it to impress my mates whenever the topic of ‘tongue twisters’ came up. They always get so amazed, but I don’t really think it’s too difficult. I could also say the other four fairly easily. TSS’ ones were also a cinch.
Only pewpewpew’s “Irish wristwatch” and WALL-E’s “river rother” tripped me up. I pronounce my 'r’s like 'w’s, so when I was young, my dad used to call me “Elmer Fudd”. (“You wascally wabbit!”) I still can’t roll my 'r’s. :blush:

Hehe, me too. But some others in this thread were a challenge for me.

#11

Betty bought butter but her butter was bitter, so Betty bought better butter to make her bitter butter better.

Cruel coins quarrel with the cool coin.

I found some more tongue twisters in my sister’s magazines:

-Stu chews shoes.

-Shredded Swiss cheese

-Nate the bat ate Pat the gnat.

-Are our oars oak?

-A skunk sat on a stump, and the stump stunk

Oh boy, that last one was hard BDD.

#18

My sister just made up one. “I put my pretty princess poster up”.
Sounds kinda girly, but I actually did get tongue tied in that one!

I’ve also told people I know to say “Irish wristwatch” and they all messed up the first time saying it (I did, too). That one’s a good one.
