How to say it

This one trips up native speakers. Expect to bite your tongue a few times before it clicks. At this length, build up in two-beat chunks and then string them together.

The tricky bit is the “ch” sounds that repeat and flip around inside each phrase.

Why it's tricky

This 10-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.
