How to say it
A solid middle-of-the-road twister - tricky but not impossible. At this length, build up in two-beat chunks and then string them together.
Notice the run of 4 words starting with T - that's what makes it slip.
Why it's tricky
This 17-word twister packs its tricky sounds into a short window, so your tongue gets no rest between each trap. Tongue twisters work by packing similar or alternating sounds close together, so your lips and tongue have to reset faster than normal speech allows - practising them is a great workout for clear diction.
