Tongue Twisters 3
1. A Twister of twists,
Once twisted a twist,
And the twist that he twisted,
Was a three-twisted twist. Now in twisting this twist,
If a twist should untwist.
The twist that untwisted
Would untwist the twist.
2. Once upon a barren moor
There dwelt a bear.
also a boar.
The bear could not bear the boar.

That boar that bored him on the moor. And so one mom he bored the boar—
That boar will bore the bear no more.

4. Ned Nott was shot
and Sam Shott was not
So it is better to be Shott
than Nott. Some say Nott was not shot
But Shott says he shot Nott. Either the shot Shott shot at Nott was not shot, or Nott was shot
If the shot Shott shot shot Nott,
Nott was shot But if the shot Shott shot shot Shott,
then Shott was shot, not Nott. However,
the shot Shott shot shot not Shott-
but Nott.

Before Soar saw See which made Soar sore. Had Soar seen See's saw Before See sawed Soar's seesaw.
See's saw would not have sawed
Soar's seesaw. So See's saw sawed Soar's seesaw. But it was a shame to see Soar so sore just because See's saw sawed
Soar's seesaw.
6. Theophilus Thisdedown,
the successful thistle sifter,
in sifting a sieve of unsifted thistles,
thrust three thousand thistles through the thick of his thumb.
If, then, Theophilus Thistledown, the successful thistle sifter,
thrust three thousand thistles through the thick of his thumb,
see that thou, in sifting a sieve of thistles,
do not get the unsifted thistles stuck in thy thumb.
7. Esaw Wood sawed wood. Esaw Wood would saw

saw would. Now Esaw saws with that saw he saw saw wood.

21. SHREWD SIMON SHORT
Shrewd Simon Short sewed shoes. Seventeen sum-
mers saw Simon's small, shabby shop still standing, saw
Simon's self same squeaking sign still swinging swiftly,
specifying:
SIMON SHORT

Shoes Soled • Sewed Super
finely
Simon s spouse, Sally Short, sewed sheets, stitched
shirts, stuffed sofas. Simon's stout sturdy sons—Stephen, Samuel, Saul,
Silas—sold sim dies. Stephen sold silks, satins, and shawls.
Samuel sold saddles, stirrups. Saul sold silver spoons,
specialties. Silas sold Sally Short's stuffed sofas. Simon's second son, Samuel, saw Sophia Sophronia
Spriggs somewhere. Sweet, sensible, smart Sophia
Sophronia Spriggs. Sam soon showed strange symp-
toms. Surprisingly, Sam sighed sorrowfully, sang
several serenades slyly, sought Sophia Spriggs' society,
seldom stood selling saddles.
Simon stormed, scowled severely, said, "Sam seems
so silly singing such senseless songs."
"Softly," said sweet Sally. "Sam's smitten. Sam's
spied some sweetheart."
"Smittenl" snarled Simon. "Scatterbrained simple-
ton! Sentimental, silly schoolboyl"
_______________________________________________
Sally sighed sadly. Summoning Sam, she spoke
sympathizingly. "Sam," said she, "Sire* seems singularly
snappish. So, Sonny, stop strolling streets so soberly,
stop singing sly serenades. Sell saddles sensibly, Sam.
See Sophia Sophronia Spriggs speedily."
"So soon?" said Sam, startled. "So soon, surely," said Sally, smilingly, "specially since Sire shows such spirit."
So Sam, somewhat scared, sauntered slowly store- ward, shaking stupendously. "Sophia Sophronia
Spriggs . . . Sam Short's spouse . . . sounds splendid,"
said Sam softy.
Sam soon spied Sophia starching shirts, singing
softy. Seeing Sam, she stopped, saluting Sam smilingly.
Sam stuttered shockingly. "Sp-sp-splendid s-s-sum- mer s-s-season, So-So-Sophia."
"Somewhat sultry," suggested Sophia.
"S-s-sartin," said Sam.
"Still selling saddles, Sam?" said Sophia.

In a pestilential prison, with a life-long lock,

A short, sharp shock, a big black block!

And awaiting the sensation

Benefits of Tongue Twister
It is a great warm-up exercise for public speaking, as it not only supports effective articulation but also emphasizes speech clarity. Tongue Twisters show you what words and sounds you have trouble pronouncing. Improve memory and reading.
They are also a great tool for language learners to use to practise their English pronunciation. These fun phrases can be difficult for even native speakers, with confusing alliteration and combinations of similar words.
Tongue Twisters make for excellent reading fluency exercises, and create wonderful and playful opportunities to explore concepts and skills such as phonemic awareness, alliteration, rhythm, syllables, word awareness, vocabulary development, and memory work.
A mathematician can mathematize mathematics mathematically so If a mathematician can mathematize mathematics mathematically, why can't I mathematize mathematics mathematically like a mathematician who mathematizes mathematics mathematically
