From 'Around the rugged rock, the ragged rascal ran' to 'red leather, yellow leather', one aspect of mastering a language is being able to master its tongue twisters. They are always decidedly odd sentences:

Combien de sous sont ces saucissons-ci? Ces saucissons-ci sont six sous (French): "How much are these sausages here? These sausages here are six cents".

Zwei schwarze schleimige Schlangen sitzen zwischen zwei spitzen Steinen und zischen (German): "Two black slimy snakes sit between two pointed stones and hiss".

Other favourites in the European arena include:

Some short words or phrases 'become' tongue-twisters when repeated, a number of times fast (try it!):

Thin Thing

French Friend

Red Leather, Yellow Leathe

Unique New York

Sometimes Sunshine

Irish Wristwatch

Big Whip
