Dear students,

DO YOU KNOW WHAT A TONGUETWISTER IS?

http://mcargobe.wordpress.com

A tonguetwister may be a sentence or a poem which puts together similar sounds so that they are difficult to say and your tongue moves strangely!!

We are now starting to revise countable and uncountable nouns and so on. I have been looking for tonguetwisters that have items related with this grammatical point.
 I give you two examples:

Thirty-three thousand people think that Thursday is their thirtieth birthday.
                                                           by Julia Dicum

How many cuckoos could a good cook cook, if a good cook could cook cuckoos?
A good cook could cook as many cuckoos as a good cook could cook, if a good cook could cook cuckoos.
                                                              by Ramón Mas


I want you to help me in this task. Leave your comments with tonguetwisters related to these. You can look for them in internet or invent them!

You can also do a little test here

  1. If you understand, say "understand".
    If you don't understand, say "don't understand".
    But if you understand and say "don't understand".
    How do I understand that you understand? Understand!
