1 Tongue Twisters G'day guys. Welcome to this episode. Today's something a little different. I thought I would make you Aussie English Support Packers a different kind of lesson where I tackle tongue twisters. So, I was chatting to Estefania in the Aussie English Virtual Classroom and she was saying that it'd be interesting to have some tongue twisters to do. So, I'm going to try and do some of those for you now. And, yeah, let's practice our English and practice some of these more difficult sounds in English. So, the first one is "Would" vs "Chuck" How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood. How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood. How much wood would a... How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood. How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood. There you go. The next one is the letter "P". Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers. How many pickled peppers did Peter Piper pick. 1

The next one involves the word "Can". Can you ca... Alright, the one after this tackles the letter "F". Frivolously fanciful Frannie fried fresh fish furiously. Frivolously fanciful Fannie fried fresh fri......fried fesh......friend fresh fish furiously. Frivolously fanci.. Fan... See this is getting me with the "F" and the "R" in there. Frivolously fanciful Fannie fried fresh fish furiously. Frivolously fanciful Fannie fried fresh fish furiously. I don't think I can do that one much quicker. The next one is "B" and "T". 2

Okay, I don't think I'm going to be able to do this one fast either. To begin to toboggan first buy a toboggan, but don't buy too big a toboggan. Too big a toboggan is too big a toboggan to buy to begin to toboggan. Far out. To begin to toboggan first buy a toboggan, but don't buy too big a toboggan.

She saw Sharif's shoes on the sofa, but was she... was she so sure thoshhh... were Sharif's shoes she shhh... she saw. She saw Sharif's shoes on the sofa, but was she so sure those were Sharif's shoes she saw. The "SH" and the "S", that's so hard! She saw Sharif's shoes on the sofa, but was she so sure those were Sharif's shoes she saw. I don't think I can do it much quicker than that. Another one here is "C" and "P".
