Tongue Twister Exercise

Spoken English Exercise Objective

The objective of this spoken English exercise is to habituate our tongues to pronounce difficult and same sounding words easily. For example the difference in sounds of "sa" and "sha" in "same" and "shame". It helps in getting our mouths properly stretched while speaking words.


Spoken English Exercise Requirement
  • Get some good tongue twisters.(You may just search Google for tongue twisters).
  • I have provided some of them below.
  • Make sure that you pronounce the twisters slowly. Once comfortable, then you may speed up.
  • Practice them for a good command on the language and pronunciation 
  • If possible, then make sure that some one good in English listens to the pronunciation.
