Lesson
Remember the film "My Fair Lady" adapted from "Pygmalion", had an exercise that the girl had to practice in order to improve her pronunciation:
"The rain in Spain, falls mainly on the plain"
An old favourite of mine is:
"She sells sea shells by the sea shore.
The shells she sells are surely seashells.
So if she sells shells on the seashore,
I'm sure she sells seashore shells."
Do not attempt this if you have had too many bevies (alcoholic beverages)!!!
But feel free to add your own.

This one's pretty difficult to say quickly….. "She sells sea shells by the sea shore. The shells she sells are surely seashells. So if she sells shells on the seashore, I'm sure she sells seashore shells."

I like tongue twisters, it’s a lot of fun but some of them are soooo difficult for the tongue muscles like “sea shells by the seashore”.
Say this as quickly as possible:
Woodchuck
How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood? He would chuck, he would, as much as he could, and chuck as much wood as a woodchuck would if a woodchuck could chuck wood.

I need to practice such a long time to get along well with them. They're too demanding!
