Tongue twisters are loads of fun to both the people listening and the ones saying it. A tongue twister is nothing but a phrase, sentence or a group of words that prove arduous to articulate. They comprise alliterations, rhymes, distinct homophones and series of similar sounds. However, besides conducing to humor, tongue twisters are also used to help students improve their pronunciation. They are included in lessons and are found to be effective in improving consonant and vowel sounds.
I'm not a pheasant plucker,
I'm a pheasant plucker's son.
And I'm only plucking pheasants 'till
the pheasant plucker comes.
There was a fisherman named Fisher,
who fished for some fish in a fissure.
Till a fish with a grin,pulled the fisherman in.
Now they're fishing the fissure for Fisher.
A skunk sat on a stump.
The stump thought the skunk stunk.
The skunk thought the stump stunk
What stunk the skunk or the stump?
A twister of twists once twisted a twist;
A twist that he twisted was a three-twisted twist;
If in twisting a twist one twist should untwist,
The untwisted twist would untwist the twist.
