The longest tongue twister Liguria, full text

On Thursday the fourth, at four and a quarter o'clock, the Ligurian traffic controller was regulating in Liguria, but thirty-three ships tacked, tacked, but never managed, and then the protocol about the protocol was recorded by the protocol, as the interviewed Ligurian traffic controller eloquently, but not clearly, reported , and reported so much about the wet weather that, so that the incident did not become a contender for a judicial precedent, the Ligurian traffic controller acclimatized in unconstitutional Constantinople, where the tufted laughter laughed and shouted to the Turk, who was blackly stoned with a pipe:
“Don’t smoke, Turk, a pipe, better buy a pile.” peak, better buy a pile of peak, otherwise a bombardier from Brandeburg will come and bombard him with bombs because someone with a black snout dug up half his yard with his snout, dug up and dug up!

But in fact, the Turk was not in the business, and Klara the King was sneaking to the stall at that time, while Karl was stealing corals from Klara, for which Klara stole the clarinet from Karl, and then in the yard of the tar widow Varvara, these two thieves were stealing firewood. But sin is not laughter, not putting it in a nut. About Klara and Karl in the darkness, all the crayfish were noisy in a fight, so the thieves had no time for the bombardier, but neither did they care about the tar widow, and they had no time for the tar children.


But the angry widow put the firewood into the barn: once firewood, two firewood, three firewood - all the firewood could not fit, and two woodcutters, two woodcutters, for the emotional Varvara, expelled the firewood across the width of the yard back to the wood yard, where the heron withered, the heron withered, the heron died.

The heron's chick clung tenaciously to the chain; well done against the sheep, and against the well done the sheep itself, to which Senya carries hay in a sleigh, then Senka carries Sonya and Sanka on a sled: the sled hops, Senka sideways, Sonya head on, everything into a snowdrift, and from there only a head of bumps knocked him down, then Sasha went along the highway, Sasha found the sachet on the highway.

Sonya - Sashka’s friend was walking along the highway and sucking a dryer, and besides, Sonya the turntable also had three cheesecakes in her mouth - exactly like a honey cake, but she had no time for a honey cake - Sonya, with the cheesecakes in the sexton’s mouth, over-mixed, over-stuffed: buzzing like a ground beetle , buzzing and spinning: she was at Frol’s - Frol lied to Lavra, will go to Lavra to Frol Lavra will lie that - the sergeant with the sergeant, the captain with the captain, the snake has a snake, the hedgehog has a hedgehog, and a high-ranking guest has taken away his cane , and soon again five guys ate five honey mushrooms and half a quarter of a quadruple of lentils without a wormhole, and one thousand six hundred and sixty-six pies with cottage cheese from whey from under sour milk - about all of this the bells were ringing with groans, so much so that even Konstantin - Salzburg the unpromising man stated from under an armored personnel carrier:

- Just as you can’t ring all the bells, you can’t beat them again, so you can’t speed up all the tongue twisters, you can’t speed them up; but trying is not torture.

Today I remembered this interesting tongue twister and decided to write a post.

About 2 years ago, I came across a video by Svetlana Tulskaya, where she clearly and quickly pronounces a long tongue twister. As I later learned, this combination of more than 40 tongue twisters in one is called “Liguria”.

In the summer of 2013, I learned this tongue twister while I was practicing diction, but I also used the technique of memorizing texts to speed up memorization.

At the moment, this tongue twister has become quite popular and you can find videos of various TV presenters, as well as amateurs who have recorded the pronunciation of this long tongue twister on video.

Complete tongue twister “Liguria” with accents

Unfortunately, due to the popularity of the tongue twister, it is not so easy to find its full text now. There are often versions where some phrases are cut off or completely different words are written. Therefore, I decided to specifically post the full text of the tongue twister “Liguria” here.

In addition, I decided to add emphasis, because... Some words are questionable and many people make mistakes in them, including the presenters in the video.

On Thursday the fourth, at four and a quarter o'clock, the Ligurian traffic controller was regulating in Liguria, but thirty-three ships tacked, maneuvered, but never got out, and then the protocol about the protocol was recorded as a protocol, as the interviewed Ligurian traffic controller eloquently, but not purely reported, yes did not complete the report, but so reported about the wet weather that, so that the incident did not become a contender for a judicial precedent, the Ligurian traffic controller acclimatized in unconstitutional Constantinople, where the tufted laughter laughed and shouted to the Turk, who was blackly stoned with a pipe: don’t smoke, Turk, buy a pipe better buy a pile of peaks, better buy a pile of peaks, otherwise a bomber will come from Brandenburg and bombard him with bombs because someone black-nosed half his yard with his snout dug up, dug up and dug up; but in fact the Turk was not in the business, and Klara the King was sneaking to the stall at that time, while Karl was stealing corals from Klara, for which Klara stole the clarinet from Karl, and then in the yard of Varvara, the tar widow, these two thieves were stealing firewood; but it’s a sin - not laughter - not to put it in a nut: about Clara and Karl in the darkness, all the crayfish were making noise in a fight - so the thieves had no time for the bombardier, and no time for the tar widow, and no time for the tar children; but the angry widow put the firewood into the barn: one firewood, two firewood, three firewood - all the firewood could not fit, and two woodcutters, two woodcutters and a woodcutter for the emotional Varvara, expelled the wood across the width of the yard back to the wood yard, where the heron withered, the heron withered, the heron died; the heron's chick clung tenaciously to the chain; well done against the sheep, and against the well done the sheep itself, to which Senya carries hay in a sleigh, then Senka carries Sonya and Sanka on a sled: sleigh-jump, Senka-on the side, Sonya-on the forehead, everything-into the snowdrift, and Sashka is just a bump in the head knocked him down, then Sasha went along the highway, Sasha found Sasha on the highway; Sonya - Sashka’s friend was walking along the highway and sucking on a dryer, and besides, Sonya the turntable also had three cheesecakes in her mouth - exactly like a honey cake, but she had no time for a honey cake - Sonya, with cheesecakes in her mouth, the sexton over-mocks, - over-molds: it buzzes like ground beetle, buzzing and spinning: was at Frol's - Frol lied about Lavra, will go to Lavra at Frol Lavra will lie, that - in the Ahmistr with the Vahmistrsha, the captain with the mouth, that the snake has a snake, and the hedgehog has a hedgehog, and he has a high-ranking the guest took away the cane, and soon again the five children ate five honey mushrooms and half a quarter of four lentils without worms, and one thousand six hundred and sixty-six pies with cottage cheese from curdled milk whey - about all of this, around the bell, the bells were ringing, so much so that even Konstantin, a Salzburg unpromising man, stated from under an armored personnel carrier: just as you cannot ring all the bells, you cannot repeat the bells, so you cannot repeat all the tongue twisters, you cannot repeat them too quickly; but trying is not torture.

Pay attention to the emphasis on “Yogotnikova” - that’s how it’s pronounced. From the word “tar” - one who produces tar. Also the word “sneaked”. It is in these words that mistakes are most often made.

How to remember the tongue twister "Liguria"

After I honed my diction with the help of this proverb, I came to the conclusion that the goal should not be to remember the tongue twister.

Features of "Liguria"

In fact, “Liguria” is not just the most complex tongue twister. This is a real text, consisting of 434 words. What’s interesting is that the world’s largest tongue twister essentially acts as a kind of mosaic canvas or puzzle, consisting of many of the most familiar and ordinary, not too long tongue twisters about the traffic controller and other characters. The entire combination of “Liguria” consists of 40 popular and not so popular idioms.

For speech development in children

The division of tongue twisters into children's and adults is very arbitrary. The last group includes phrases consisting of words whose meaning is not yet known to children. But from three to eight years old, it is still better to work with passages and rhymes aimed at developing automaticity in pronouncing consonants in different combinations with vowels.

With three-year-olds, you can start working on the whistling sounds s-s and z-z, for example:

  • Sa-sa-sa, sa-sa-sa - Sonya has a long braid;
  • As-as-as, as-as-as - we drank delicious kvass in the evening.

With four- and five-year-olds, you can work on hissing (zh, sh, ch, sch) and the sound l, using the following phrases as a basis:

  • Chi-chi-chi, chi-chi-chi - there are bricks at the market;
  • Already, already, we lost our luggage.

And from the age of five to eight years, you need to teach the child to pronounce the most difficult sound of the Russian language - “r”.

You can come up with similar tongue twisters yourself with your child, simultaneously developing his writing abilities, or use ready-made phrases.

Tongue twister "Liguria" - full text version

Below is the entire text of the Ligurian tongue twister. It is very long and quite complex. It can be extremely difficult to cope with it the first time, since accents still play an important role here.

On Thursday the fourth at four and a quarter o'clock the Ligurian traffic controller was regulating in Liguria, but thirty-three ships tacked, tacked, but never tacked. And then he recorded the protocol about the protocol as a protocol. As an interviewer, an interviewed Ligurian regulator Rechisto, but he didn’t cleanly reported, but he didn’t bargained, but so he was infected about the warm -up weather that, so that the incident does not become a condemni, the Ligurian regulator is accumulated in the unconstitutional Constantinople, where the crested Khokhokhokykhovyu chokhokhotsyk shouted to Turk which is roughly smoked with a pipe:

Don’t smoke a pipe, Turk,
you’d better buy a pile of peaks, you’d better buy a pile of peaks, otherwise a bomber from Brandenburg will come and bombard you with bombs because someone black-nosed dug up half his yard with his snout, dug up and dug up.
But in fact, the Turk was not in business, and Clara the King was sneaking to the chest at that time, while Karl was stealing corals from Clara, for which Clara stole the clarinet from Karl. And then in the yard of Varvara, the tar widow, two of these thieves were stealing firewood. But it’s a sin - not laughter - not to put it in a nut: about Clara and Karl in the darkness, all the crayfish were making noise in a fight - so the thieves had no time for the bombardier, and no time for the tar widow, and no time for the tar children. But the angry widow put the firewood into the barn: one firewood, two firewood, three firewood - all the firewood could not fit, and two woodcutters, two woodcutters and a woodcutter for the emotional Varvara, expelled the firewood across the width of the yard back to the wood yard, where the heron wasted away, the heron withered, the heron died.

The heron's chick clung tenaciously to the chain; well done against the sheep, and against the well done the sheep itself, to which Senya carries hay in a sleigh, then Senka carries Sonya and Sanka on a sled: sleigh-jump, Senka-on the side, Sonya-on the forehead, everything-into the snowdrift, and Sashka is just a bump in the head knocked him down, then Sasha went along the highway, Sasha found Sasha on the highway.

Sonya - Sashka’s friend was walking along the highway and sucking on a dryer, and besides, Sonya the turntable also had three cheesecakes in her mouth - exactly like a honey cake, but she had no time for a honey cake - Sonya, with cheesecakes in her mouth, the sexton over-mocks, - over-molds: it buzzes like ground beetle, buzzing and spinning: was at Frol's - Frol lied about Lavra, will go to Lavra at Frol Lavra will lie, that - in the Ahmistr with the Vahmistrsha, the captain with the mouth, that the snake has a snake, and the hedgehog has a hedgehog, and he has a high-ranking the guest took away the cane, and soon again the five children ate five honey mushrooms and half a quarter of four lentils without worms, and one thousand six hundred and sixty-six pies with cottage cheese from curdled milk whey - about all of this, around the bell, the bells were ringing, so much so that even Konstantin, a Salzburg unpromising man, stated from under an armored personnel carrier:

Accents in the Ligurian tongue twister

In order for the longest tongue twister “Liguria” to benefit you and become an excellent help for the development of the articulatory apparatus, it is very important to read it correctly. After all, it’s not enough to clearly and distinctly say “on Thursday the fourth” or about how ships maneuvered somewhere there. It is important to understand the meaning and essence of the text from the tongue twisters, and here you cannot do without some explanations. In addition, such comments will make your speech more correct and competent. After all, today many people distort accents.

So here are some important notes about accent placement in Liguria:

  • “Sasha” - emphasis on the second vowel, since we are not talking about a name, but about a pillow with a scent to repel moths;
  • In the words “sergeant” and “captain”, which denote military ranks, the emphasis is on the first syllable;
  • In the phrase “tar widow” the emphasis is also on the first vowel.

On a note! In any word with the letter “E” the emphasis is always placed on it.

It is also worth noting that the stress falls on the first syllable in the word “creeped”, but when pronouncing the name of the city “Barndenburg”, the emphasis should be shifted to the sound “u”, since according to the rules of the Russian language this word is read in this way. The “y” is also emphasized when denoting Liguria itself.

Note! Liguria is not only the name of the proposed text for the development of diction, but also the region of Italy.

When working on a long tongue twister, pay attention to the reading of the word “sexton”. Here the emphasis is on the very last sound.

When you read Liguria, read the names correctly. Here you may have a hitch with the words “Frola, Frolu.” It is worth mentioning right away that the interpretation of the correct pronunciation of this name in various sources may differ from each other. But don't forget the rules and their exceptions. In the names Peter, Frol, Lev, the emphasis is on the last syllable.

Of course, such a big tongue twister about Liguria, as it is commonly called, will not be “given” to you just like that. After all, some of the words in it are outdated; today they are practically not found in our everyday life - hence the main difficulties.

Additional exercises

Demosthenes is considered one of the most famous orators of the ancient world (384-322 BC). He managed to achieve outstanding results despite the fact that since childhood he suffered from tongue-tied speech (slurred speech), had a weak voice and short breathing. Plus to this whole set, Demosthenes had a habit of twitching his shoulder. To learn to pronounce words clearly, he made speeches with stones in his mouth. A similar method of speech training is still used today.

  • Read the tongue twisters by putting a few nuts in your mouth.
  • You can read tongue twisters while holding a wine cork or an ordinary pencil between your teeth.
  • Try to pronounce the words as clearly as possible. To evaluate the quality of pronunciation, record the sound on a computer or voice recorder and then listen to it. It will be possible to compare speech intelligibility on the first day of class and after a certain period of time, for example two weeks.

They say that such exercises can significantly improve speech diction in a short time. Let's check.
