International Tongue Twister Day is celebrated on the second Sunday of November every year. It is a day to celebrate the fun and challenge of tongue twisters, which are phrases or sentences that are difficult to say quickly and correctly.

The holiday was inspired by the annual International Tongue Twister contest that used to be held at the Logic Puzzle Museum in Burlington, Wisconsin. The first International Tongue Twister Day was celebrated in 2011.

There are many ways to celebrate International Tongue Twister Day. Here are a few ideas:

  • Challenge yourself to learn a new tongue twister. There are many tongue twisters available online and in books.

  • Hold a tongue twister contest with your friends and family. See who can say the tongue twister the fastest and most correctly.

  • Write your own tongue twister. This is a fun and creative way to celebrate the holiday.

  • Visit a museum or library that has exhibits on tongue twisters.

Here are a few popular tongue twisters to try:

  • Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.

  • Betty Botter bought some butter, "But," she said, "the butter's bitter. If I put it in my batter it will make my batter bitter."

  • How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

  • She sells seashells by the seashore.

  • Round the rugged rock the ragged rascal ran.

International Tongue Twister Day is a fun and challenging holiday that is enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to practise your pronunciation and have some fun with words.
