Storm from the shore

Tossed over, overturned The white-whiskered eels got angry and went wild. Thrown down, thrown up, Unraveled and intertwined from dawn to dawn. Trembling snakes, squealing snakes, What kind of dance, what kind of fairy tale have you started in the darkness?

Tongue Twisters. What is this?

These are small humorous phrases that use difficult to pronounce and difficult to combine words and sounds.

They are also called tongue-breakers. If you try to pronounce any of them without preparation, then, as a rule, all familiar words turn into a mess of sounds and letters. But after some training you will be able to cope with the task.

These funny, difficult to pronounce phrases were invented to improve diction. What then is diction? This is a clear and precise pronunciation. And good pronunciation in vocals plays a very important role, because this is how the performer can convey the emotions and meaning of the song.

To develop good and clear diction, it is necessary to work on the development of each organ of articulation. They are divided into two large groups: active and passive.

The first category includes movable organs - vocal cords, tongue, lips, soft palate, lower jaw and posterior back of the pharynx. The passive group includes all fixed organs: teeth, upper jaw, alveoli and hard palate.

Many people mistakenly believe that tongue twisters are children's entertainment. In fact, practicing diction with the help of tongue-breakers is very widespread among adults whose activities involve various kinds of performances. This may include:

Singers;
Artists;
Politicians;
People who regularly speak at conferences;
Presenters;
Teachers etc

Tongue twisters carry 2 basic tasks:

. ” Many presenters and those who have to give a speech in public first pronounce 2-3 complex tongue twisters. This is how they warm up to avoid hesitations and hesitations during the performance.
Training for clear speech
, without which it is impossible for any speaker to speak.

The meaning and role of poems in the development of diction

There are many exercises and techniques for training diction. The most interesting among them is the reading of poems - both special and classical versions.

The peculiarity of this “poetic” method is its simplicity: it is suitable for both children and adults. The poems have a rhythm that helps you control your breathing, place emphasis on certain words, and learn to observe intonation pauses.

A poem to improve diction is a kind of tongue twister, framed in a rhymed form. This allows you to pay attention to those sounds that cause difficulties in pronunciation (“r”, “sh”, “s”).

A certain “singing” form of poems makes it possible to emphasize vowel sounds, which regulate the correct pronunciation of words and intonation, which plays a decisive role in the development of diction

The task of any technique (and poems, in particular) is the correct presentation of speech.

Thanks to this, a person will be able to clearly express his thoughts, make the necessary impression on his interlocutor, and prove himself in professions where communication skills are important.

Once upon a time there were three Chinese - tongue twister, full version

Try to learn and speak this tongue twister about the Chinese. If you succeed with diction, then everything is in order.

Once upon a time there lived three Chinese: Yak, Yak Tsidrok and Yak Tsidrok Tsidrone. Once upon a time there were three Chinese women: Tsypa, Tsypa Drypa, Tsypa Drypa Limpopone. So they got married: Yak on Tsypa, Yak Tsidrok on Tsypa Drypa, Yak Tsidrok Tsidrone on Tsypa Drypa Limpopone. So they had children: Yak Tsidrok with Tsypa - Shah, Yak Tsidrok with Tsypa Drypa - Shah Sharakh, Yak Tsidrok Tsidrone with Tsypa Drypa Limpopone - Shah Sharakh Sharone.

Technology for practicing diction using poems

Since poetry is an effective form of developing diction, there are many methods for practicing pronunciation with their help. As mentioned above, you can train the pronunciation of sounds with the help of classical works or special, “narrator” poems.

The first option is more suitable for teenagers, as well as adults preparing for public performances. Speech therapists recommend reading poems by Homer, V. Mayakovsky, A. Blok, since these authors have a clearly defined rhythm (either smoothly melodious, or sharp and clear).

For children and adults with speech disorders, special poems are suitable where attention is paid to problematic sounds. Examples of such works are “Storm from the Shore” (“Thrown over, overturned ...”), “Live on the radio”, “Don’t leave the room” and others.

There are two main methods for reading poems. The first involves reading in one breath, which will teach you to control intonation and air flows necessary for pronunciation.

The second technique involves a leisurely but very clear pronunciation. Phrases can be recorded on a voice recorder, after which, after listening, you can “work on mistakes”, noting problem areas in pronunciation. And don’t forget that hard work and perseverance will certainly bear fruit.

So, poetry for diction is the most effective means. Thanks to rhyming lines, the articulatory apparatus can more easily cope with the pronunciation of complex sounds.

Exercises and techniques

For an adult, it is important to speak beautifully and coherently. And in order to develop this skill, to improve your speech, you need to constantly work on yourself. The following exercises will help you master the skill:

Expanding vocabulary. Choose a short prose text that you like. Arm yourself with a Russian language dictionary and a dictionary of synonyms. Your task is to replace words in the text with synonyms. Instead of words, you can choose phrases and catchphrases. At first, try replacing only adjectives, and over time move on to other parts of speech.
To develop logic and intelligence, work with keywords. To do this, select a small text and, without looking, point your finger at some word in it. This can be absolutely any part of speech that carries a semantic load. In this way, define 5 keywords for yourself. Use your imagination and logic and come up with a story or story using keywords. At a later stage of training, you can choose more keywords.
To develop confident speech and give it the right emotional coloring, work with the text from the previous exercise. Stand in front of the mirror. Read your text without emotion. Then give it an emotional twist that seems appropriate to you. At the same time, watch your facial expression. Would it be appropriate if you were telling the text to someone? Work with multiple emotions. Read the story with joy, sadness, embarrassment, disappointment, and any other feelings you can remember.
Use a voice recorder. You need to record your voice four times. The first two times you must read a poem and a prose piece with expression. You cannot read the third and fourth times; you must recite the same works by heart. Evaluate your speech according to two criteria: whether you like it and whether others would like it. You should speak from memory as confidently and with the same expression as when reading. Work with this exercise until the speech seems perfect to you. If you have problems memorizing a poem, then read our article - how to learn a poem quickly and easily by heart.
This exercise will effectively improve the speech of an adult. But to complete it you will need a partner. As in one of the previous exercises, select 10 keywords from your favorite text. Using these words, you have to conduct a dialogue with your interlocutor. The task is considered completed if the adults’ remarks are not strained, the conversation is easy and relaxed, and both partners are able to speak coherently and beautifully. You should feel that the conversation is interesting to you.

These are tips on how to make your speech beautiful and learn how to maintain any conversation. In order for these exercises to bring even greater effect and be easy to perform, it is advisable to first perform actions before them to warm up the muscles of the tongue, face and breathing. Diction exercises for stage speech will help us with this. Very effective activities are also described below.

I can't find our frog's ears. Plump Mishka puffs like a chubby. I walked over the pebbles and found a silk fur coat. Timoshka Troshke crumbles crumbs into okroshka. The cat on the window is sewing a shirt for Ermoshka. I’ll walk the filly sideways along the strap, along the log. On the window, a cat deftly catches a tiny midge with its paw.

Let's sum it up

When working on diction, the principle applies: learn to speak slowly in order to speak quickly. At the first stage, it is not speed that is important, but the clear and correct pronunciation of each sound. It is important to remember that a child often imitates those around him, including in his manner of communicating. Therefore, at home he should be surrounded by correct, “pure” speech. Parents must pronounce all sounds themselves and correct the child’s mistakes.

With regular training, of course, there will be results. However, for quick speech correction or for serious defects, such as stuttering, the help of a speech therapist is required. Therefore, it is important to contact a specialist in time. Of course, it is better if the meeting with a speech therapist-defectologist takes place before school or in primary school, so that learning your native language does not turn into a test for the whole family.
