Tie The Tongue

Tie the tongue. Hey it's an alliteration. I am sure many have heard of the game tongue twister. When most people think of tongue twisters, a childhood image comes to mind. We can picture a group of children attempt to recite those tongue-tying phrases or sentences as fast as possible without tripping over the verbal challenges.

 Well, this is tongue-tying, literally.

Since the phrase comprises of the repetition of sounds (alliteration), particularly of similar sounds but non-identical, it is made very easy to slip and hence, provide us with fun and laughter. If you notice, the term 'tongue twisters' itself can be slightly complicated to utter because it uses the repetition of the consonant T. Speaking of it, tongue twister does not only carry fun and laughter on set, but actually serves a practical purpose in practising the right pronunciation. What are we waiting for? Lets start the tongue-tying game!
