Try this one for size. It is the name of a village of Angelsey off the coast of N Wales.

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysilio gogogoch. Add .com and it becomes the longest single word domain name on the internet. Try it out:

Pablito clavó un clavito, un clavito clavó Pablito.

@Irma: San Juan Parangaricutiro es un municipio en Michoacán, al Sur de México, donde se encuentra el volcán Paricutín. En esa región viven los indios purépechas, que hablan tarasco. La palabra "Parangaricutirimícuaro" es probablemente un juego de sonidos de la lengua tarasca, más que una palabra con significado propio, inspirado en la fundación en 1943 de ese municipio, cuyo nombre se derivó del nombre del volcán.

"Popocatépetl" es un nombre en náhuatl y significa "montaña que humea (o que fuma)".

DEBAJO DE UN CARRO
Debajo de un carro ,
Había un perro
Vino otro perro
Y le mordió el rabo
Pobre perrito
Como lloraba
Por su rabito

MAS TRABALENGUAS
Se me lenguó la traba
y palabrósome la yerra.

Me han dicho que he dicho un dicho
y ese dicho que han dicho no lo he dicho yo,
porque estaba muy mal dicho.
Que si yo lo hubiera dicho
estaría muy bien dicho
por haberlo dicho yo.

Manuel Micho por capricho
mecha la carne de macho
y ayer decía un muchacho:
mucho macho mecha Micho.

Since this is a site for improving our language skills, I think someone should mention that the word "tongue" is spelt like that.

"Worker humor". As if they were taking the place of the three sad tigers, and the rest, to keep the flow with the "trabalenguas".

They're from Michoacán, so they must be also playing with the sound of the words in tarasco.


@Pjt: Thank you. Thread title corrected.

Alright everybody. Try this on for size!!! I know one of the most difficult tongue twisters around. You must pronounce it correctly to get the full effect. Ready . . . ?

Toy boat

Seems simple? Say it three times as fast as you can. I guarantee you will get mixed up. Good luck

Oh and for fun.

Had to be translated. Else, how could it be said in Spanish?

I was taught that "she sells seashells..." one while trying to teach me the "sh" sound.

This was a girl whose name was Cher and I pronounced it as "chair". She would always say "that is something you sit on it", until I got what she was saying, to which I started to reply "I know!". Needless to say, she did not like it.

Disney movies have always been very popular, so they have to be adapted to foreign languages.
