The Art of Detangling the Twisted Tongue

The Art of Detangling the Twisted Tongue

A tongue twister is a type of diction or articulation exercise containing a series of alliterations that challenge language enthusiasts to recite difficult words at a fast, rhythmic pace and help them improve their fluency, speech, and accent. The linguistic sensation is also seen as a spoken word game that brings enjoyment to its practitioners, and is celebrated as a casual holiday every 8th of November.

To master the art of detangling the twisted tongue, one may recite the tongue twister slowly at first, and then practice it in a repetitive manner while gradually speeding up his or her pace.
