A tree toad loved a she-toad
Who lived up in a tree.
He was a two-toed tree toad
But a three-toed toad was she.
The two-toed tree toad tried to win
The three-toed she-toad's heart,
For the two-toed tree toad loved the ground
That the three-toed tree toad trod.
But the two-toed tree toad tried in vain.
He couldn't please her whim.
From her tree toad bower
With her three-toed power
The she-toad vetoed him.

I like this thread, I know some tongue twisters, but none in english so I hope this is still ok.

I always fail with this one, it's in polish "stół z powyłamywanymi nogami" (Table with broken legs)

In my languages (swedish) I like this one "Sju sjuka sjömän sköttes av sju sköna sjuksköterskor" (Seven sick sailors were taken care of by seven beautiful nurses)

A flea and a fly in a flue
Were imprisoned, so what could they do?
Said the fly, "let us flee!"
"Let us fly!" said the flea.
So they flew through a flaw in the flue. [--Ogden Nash]

Flyg, fula fluga, flyg och den fula flugan flög. (Fly ugly fly, fly and the ugly fly flew) (swedish)

haha that one is not easy, I think I failed already on the third time saying it

just say it s-l-o-w-e-r..... one ... word ... at ... a ... time. and when you have that perfected, you can tackle this one- Lilly ladles little letty's lentil soup.

That one was easier, the other just turned in to schw..,something at the end

ok, here is another one-
listen to the local loco yocal yodel

a gem from another tongue twisters thread: Mr. See and Mr. Soar were old friends. See owned a saw and Soar owned a seesaw and a sword. Now, Soar swore he saw See's saw saw Soar's seesaw before See saw Soar, which made Soar sore. Had See seen Soar see See's saw before See saw Soar's seesaw, then See's saw would not have sawed Soar's seesaw, and Soar's sword would not have seared See's knees. But See never saw Soar and Soar's seesaw before Soar saw See's saw, so See's saw sawed Soar's seesaw. It was a shame to let See see Soar so sore just because See's saw sawed Soar's seesaw. When Soar saw how sorely sorry See was, he sewed See's knees and swore to leave the sword on the sea shore.
