Irish wristwatch
I can't even read it fast 3 times, let alone say it. :laughing7:
Gives you the mush-mouth, don't it? Even reading it. :pointlaugh:
Hey, it's just two little words . . .how hard can it be???
Then I try to actually "say" it . . .wow . . . that's just . .mean! :laughing7:
Mmm, seems to give no probs for me.
I think this tongue twisters only work for people who English as their 1st language.
The little member made you all fall :bgdance:
Seems that all languages can babble on.

Jeeze, I must have missed this one . . .if English isn't "your" first language, what is it? I always thought you lived in the states.

Likely some you have no problems with...
I think it's about how someone pronounces words. Maybe even because some people read English and some read English and sub consciously translates it to their own language. I think I read in English but that might not be true. Example. In the 50s 60s lots of farmers emigrated to Australia. The learned to speak English quite well. But now they are old and getting dement (sp?) they somehow forgot English and just speak their original language. Surely they are bi-langual so they perhaps just think they are in the country of birth. Or as some researchers say the language never got really part of the people.
So what I try to say is; perhaps I read Jacbat's post in Dutch and then the "twister" is gone because of that?
Do not read the word but name the colors of the words. :winkgrin:

My brain is screwed up for sure now. :bigGrin:
CHB
Couldn't do it without rejecting the first thought, the "making myself" say the color. :wacko2:
I tried several times. Sometimes it goes well and the last 2 get messed up anyway. Other times it goes wrong from the start.
If reading out loud it gets even more pathetic.
Then it becomes a tounge twister....
Quite often halfway naming the color I discover it's wrong and switch to the real color.
blred, Rellow, bluellow
:laughing7:
What language is that anyway?
