早口言葉 in English
マックンです!今回は発音練習のためにパックンに英語の早口言葉を教えてもらうことに・・・
P: So how are your English lessons going?
M: Good. But I'm having trouble with pronunciation.
P: You want to practice your pronunciation?
M: Yeah.
P: Why don't you do some tongue twisters.
M: Tongue twisters?

M:...Who?
P: No. It's a tongue twister. She sells seashells by the seashore.
M: Who sells seashells by the seashore?
P: It doesn't matter.
M: Yes it does. You can't just start a conversation with a pronoun.

P: What?
M: Or she could sell sun tan lotion at the seashore. People need suntan
lotion at the seashore.
P: That's true, but...
M: Or in the desert!
P: No, it's just a tongue twister. She sells seashell by the seashore.
M: No, no. If she's smart, Linda sells suntan lotion in the desert.
That's better!
