CAN YOU GET YOUR TONGUE ROUND THESE?
Post 1 of 10

People are often caught out by not knowing the meanings of words, but what about saying words? Can you manage these tongue-twisters?
Repeat each one three times rapidly.


**The seething sea ceaseth and thus sufliceth us.

**Preshrunk shirts.

**Fanny Finch fried five floundering fish for Francis's father.

**Six slim slick slender saplings.

**A bloke's back brake block broke.

**The sixth sheikh's sixth sheep's sick.

**Are you copperbottoming 'em, my man?
No'm, I'm aluminiuming 'em, mum.

**Amidst the mists and coldest frosts,
With barest wrists and stoutest boasts,

He thrusts his fists against the posts
And still insists he sees the ghosts.

**Tie twine to three tree twigs.

**Double bubble gum bubbles double.

**Truly rural.

**Strange strategic statistics.

**Lemon liniment.

**She stood at the door of Burgess's

fish-sauce shop welcoming him in.

It's interesting! But it's very pity for me because i seldom practice oral english. Sometimes i think maybe i have no talent in learning language. Now i know, practice makes perfect. what i should do is practice it as much as possible!
