Isn’t this tongue twister fairly difficult? It’s almost nothing but the sound “sa,” and if you don’t write it in kanji it practically makes no sense.
“Sasa sasaru saru” (a monkey getting pricked by bamboo grass) is especially hard.
As for practice, it’s best to rehearse each “saru” segment separately and then connect them.
Also, if you picture the kanji or visualize the situation as you try it, I think it feels easier than just listening.
Don’t you think it’s amazing that the person who made this tongue twister could even imagine such a scenario?
Blue giant water bug, red giant water bug, golden giant water bug
https://www.tiktok.com/@poteto_steak/video/6995134520634739970This is a tongue twister about blue giant water bugs, red giant water bugs, and golden giant water bugs.
Maybe these days there are many people who don’t really know about giant water bugs.
Giant water bugs are a type of aquatic true bug with sturdy forelegs, and as their name suggests in Japanese (tagame), they often live in rice paddies.
As a tongue twister, the “taga” part is tricky to say, so it’s good to practice that section separately.
Alternatively, since it’s a five-beat tongue twister, I also recommend first practicing the rhythm “tan-ta-ka-ta, tan-ta-ka-ta, tan-ta-ka-ta” at a brisk tempo.
Certainly, both serows and deer
https://www.tiktok.com/@masukawa1113/video/6937915774841457921This is a tongue twister from the commercial for the film “Kami☆Voice,” which became a hot topic when popular voice actor Hiroshi Kamiya delivered it with amazing articulation.
It begins with, “While a kamoshika (Japanese serow) and a shika (deer) are both certainly shika, an ashika (sea lion) is certainly not shika,” and then barrels ahead with more tongue twisters in rapid succession.
After seeing the commercial, many people jumped in to try the challenge.
As expected of a voice actor—more than that, it really shows the incredible daily effort that goes into ‘speaking the words.’ By all means, give this professional-level technique a try yourself!
Since I couldn’t tell whether it was a mule or a donkey, I compared the mule and the donkey, but I still couldn’t tell whether it was a donkey or a mule.
It’s a tongue twister that repeatedly uses two-letter words from the R-row.
The difficulty of this phrase lies in the fact that the words “raba” (mule) and “roba” (donkey) sound similar.
You need to quickly switch between the sounds “ra” and “ro” while distinguishing them accurately, which easily leads to tongue tangling.
The key to saying it is to start slowly and clearly mark the boundaries between each word.
With practice, you can speed up, but be careful not to sacrifice accuracy.
Frogs go pyoko-pyoko, three pyoko-pyoko; together pyoko-pyoko, six pyoko-pyoko.
It’s a classic tongue twister that depicts frogs popping out and the number of them gradually increasing.
Since you can tell the number doubles from three to six, it invites you to imagine how far the count might go after that.
The already tricky word pyoko-pyoko is combined with the numbers three and six, and with the syllables mi and mu, which makes it even harder to say.
Because the phrase includes popping, percussive sounds, be mindful of where to place emphasis so you can deliver it smoothly.
