TGIF: Tongue twister extraordinaire! May 23, 2014
Posted by Jill (@bonnjill) in Fun stuff, TGIF.trackback
I tripped over a couple of these. Tough even for native speakers of English. As the source of this tongue twister states: If you can pronounce correctly every word in this poem, you will be speaking English better than 90% of the native English speakers in the world.
Happy weekend (those of us in the U.S. will be off on Monday, giving us a three day weekend).

This was fun to wake up to! I love the cadence of it. This is a great warm up exercise for theatre and a great way to work on rhythm, spelling and of course, pronunciation!
I agree – it took time to read through out loud and was a lot of fun. Interesting to see where I tripped up.
My my… wow, not easy reading through without coming back to read correctly! Thanks for the exercise!
very cool! thanks (^^) will share xxx
cool, haven’t been able to do it right yet;)

Try reading this poem out loud. If you can get through it without mispronouncing at least one word, your knowledge of English words is better than mine! Thanks for sharing, @bonnjill
