Tongue-Twisters (trava-línguas)

Ao contrário do que se pensa, os trava-línguas não são apenas para diversão linguística e jogos. Eles têm um propósito prático que é melhorar a pronúncia. Tongue-Twisters são geralmente usados por estudantes estrangeiros de inglês com a intenção de melhorar o sotaque, também atores que precisam melhorar a dicção e por fonoaudiólogos,  para ajudar aqueles com dificuldades na fala.
