On Thursday the fourth at four and a quarter o'clock
The Ligurian traffic controller regulated in Liguria.
But thirty-three ships tacked and tacked, but never tacked.
And then he recorded the protocol about the protocol as a protocol.
Like an interviewer, the Ligurian traffic policeman being interviewed is eloquent,
Yes, he did not report accurately, but he did not complete his report, he did complete his report, but he reported like that
about the wet weather, what,
so that the incident does not become a candidate for judicial precedent,
Ligurian traffic controller
acclimatized in unconstitutional Constantinople.
Where the crested laughter laughed and shouted to the Turk,
which is roughly smoked with a pipe:

don't smoke, Turkish, pipe,
It’s better to buy a pile of peaks, it’s better to buy a pile of peaks.
Otherwise, a bombardier from Brandenburg will come and bombard him with bombs for
that someone with a black snout dug up half his yard with his snout, dug and dug.

But in reality the Turk was not in action,
and Clara the King was sneaking to the chest at that time, while Karl was stealing corals from Clara, for which Clara stole Karl’s clarinet,
and then in the yard of the tar widow Varvara, 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
in the darkness all the crayfish were noisy in a fight - so the thieves had no time for a bombardier, and
not for the tar widow, and not for the tar children.

But the angry widow put firewood in the barn: once firewood, two firewood, three firewood - all the firewood did not fit,
and two woodcutters, two woodcutters, a woodcutter for the emotional Varvara
pushed the wood across 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 good man the sheep itself,
which Senya carries hay in a sleigh,
then Senka takes Sonya and Sanka on a sled:
sled-jump, Senka-to the side, Sonya-to the forehead, everything-to the snowdrift,
and Sashka only knocked down some bumps with his hat,
then Sasha went along the highway, Sasha found Sasha on the highway.

Sonya, Sashka’s friend, walked along the highway and sucked on a dryer,
and besides, Sonya the Pinwheel also has three cheesecakes in her mouth -
exactly like a honey cake, but she has no time for a honey cake -
Sonya with cheesecakes in her mouth
the sexton will over-spont, - over-spont:
buzzes like a ground beetle, buzzes and spins:
was at Frol's - Frol lied to Lavra, will go to Lavra to Frol Lavra and lie,
that - a sergeant with a sergeant, a captain with a captain,
that the snake has a bite, and the hedgehog has a hedgehog,
and a high-ranking guest took away his cane,
and soon again five guys ate five honey mushrooms and half a quarter of a quadrangle of lentils without a wormhole,
and one thousand six hundred and sixty-six pies with cottage cheese from curdled milk whey,
- about everything about that, the bells were ringing around the stake,
so much so that even Konstantin, a Salzburg unpromising man, stated from under an armored personnel carrier:

How can you not ring all the bells? How can you not ring all the bells?
so you can’t talk too quickly about all the tongue twisters, you can’t talk too quickly;
but trying is not torture.

According to the results of a study by modern Russian scientists, at least 15% of the Russian population have serious problems with diction. Is your vocabulary limited? Do you sometimes pronounce certain sounds incorrectly? The longest tongue twister “Liguria” will help get rid of these shortcomings. The text of this poem is really very long and complex. There is no need to force yourself to learn it completely at any cost. Start with small parts, and gradually combine everything into one tongue twister.

If the problem with word pronunciation or diction is severe enough, seek help from a professional speech therapist. Classes with such a master will definitely be effective.

If you have a lot of free time, you can practice speech development on your own, at home. “Liguria” and other longest tongue twisters in the world will help you with this.

A tongue twister is a rhyme or sentence that allows you to train speech and articulation. As a rule, poems are composed by folk craftsmen and have a humorous orientation. However, the main thing in such a work is the awkward combination of sounds, which can be very difficult to pronounce. Most speech therapists recommend learning tongue twisters for diction and increasing vocabulary.

Choose poems that contain a lot of sounds that you can’t pronounce.
For example, if you do not clearly pronounce the sounds “ch”, “l”, “r”, feel free to learn the first small part of Liguria - “On Thursday the fourth, at four and a quarter o’clock, the Ligurian traffic controller was regulating in Liguria.”

Such phrases are very difficult for an adult to pronounce, but useful daily diction training will help you quickly improve your speech apparatus and significantly increase your vocabulary. If you can handle the longest tongue twister in the world, you can be sure that in the future you will definitely become an excellent speaker and be able to build a successful career.

Features of the tongue twister “Liguria”

Professional speech therapists (speech therapists and linguists) claim that “Liguria” is not only the longest, but also the most complex tongue twister in the Russian language. With the help of such a verse, you can learn a variety of phonemes, train memory, articulation and pronunciation. You can study the poem with the whole family, because it is useful not only for adults, but also for teenagers. Beautiful, clear, correctly delivered speech will help anyone win the attention and respect of others, colleagues, and listeners.

Not every announcer knows Liguria by heart. If the beginning, in which the “Ligurian traffic controller” appears, can still be remembered, then by the middle of the text many people’s thoughts are simply confused. To begin with, speech therapists recommend learning to read a poem at a fast pace, and only after that start learning it in separate parts.

Patter for clear diction is used by announcers, athletes, artists and other professionals whose careers require correct and intelligible speech.

How to learn “Liguria” in 7 days?

Surely, many have tried more than once to learn the longest tongue twister in the world, but the phrase “the Ligurian traffic controller was regulating...” the process was slowed down. Few people have the patience and perseverance to master this, at first glance, not so long verse (compare at least with “Borodino”).

It is important not only to know the order of words in the text, but also to pronounce them correctly and place emphasis. The difficulty of Liguria is that phonemes need to be pronounced at a fast pace. Do you think this is unrealistic?

It turns out there is no special secret in Liguria. You just need to learn it in a certain way and gradually. Don't be alarmed. You don't need to devote months or years to this activity, just one week is enough.

So, let's look at the simplest plan for learning Liguria that is accessible to everyone.

Day No1. Print out the text of the tongue twister and read it very slowly for 15-20 minutes. Mentally imagine the picture and events discussed in the poem. All words must be pronounced clearly and the correct emphasis must be placed.
Day No2. Continue reading the tongue twister for 15-20 minutes, but speed up the pace of speech a little.
Day No3. Now you will need a little more time. Learn the following lines by heart. Here is the 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, maneuvered, and never got caught, and then the protocol about the protocol was recorded by the protocol, as the interviewed Ligurian traffic controller was speaking eloquently , but he didn’t report cleanly, but he reported about the wet weather in such a way that the incident would not become a candidate for a judicial precedent.” Repeat the beginning of the tongue twister from memory, and continue reading the rest.
Day No4. We are learning new 15 lines. We recite 30 lines of Liguria from memory, and quickly read the rest. The lesson will take you 40-50 minutes.
Day No5. We repeat yesterday with the addition of 15 new lines we learned.
Day No6. We learn the end of the tongue twister by heart. We repeat all 60 lines at an average pace for 40 minutes. Try not to peek at the text. Liguria's words should already be firmly entrenched in your memory.
Day No7. By the end of the week, you already know the tongue twister by heart. All that remains is to improve your pronunciation and speed up your speech rate as much as possible. This workout will take you no more than 15 minutes.

If you strictly follow the recommendations presented above, tongue twister for improving diction will not seem like something scary to you. Spend just 50-60 minutes studying every day, and your friends and colleagues will very soon notice how much your speech has improved.

All you have to do is put in a little effort and persistence, and you will be able to learn the original tongue twister “Liguria”. The tongue twister is designed for teenage children and adults. It is better for kids to start learning simpler rhymes, gradually increasing their complexity. If your child thinks figuratively from early childhood, he can easily remember a simple rhyme.

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.

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.

The main goal is to train clear diction.

During the training process, if you do this for a long time (for example, a month), and at least sometimes try to repeat the tongue twister without looking at the text, then it will be remembered by itself.

Firstly, stresses are memorized separately and it is advisable to do this first - before training. Skim through the text, note for yourself words that are difficult from the point of view of stress, remember them using memorization techniques. For example, “mnemonic” or “test word.”

The first step is to come up with an image with which we will test the word.
- “Tar” is easy to remember (emphasis on “Yo”), but most often they write “Tar”. I already wrote above how this word is formed and what its correct stress is.
- “crowned” - test word “r” A k", "cr A b", "cr A n"
- "rOtmistr" - test word "r" ABOUT t", "cr ABOUT T"
The second step is to connect the images of the word and the test word. I imagine the Lord opened his mouth and his jaw dropped to the ground. I can imagine how the girl tiptoed on the tap to the crayfish and the crab. (here I used 2 test words at once).
The third step is to repeat. We scroll through the pictures several times in our imagination and remember the correct accents.

Secondly, to remember the text of the tongue twister itself, you will need a location system with at least 20 places.

Next, you can divide this tongue twister into the individual ones that it consists of and choose an image for each of them. Or you select into images those pieces of text that are difficult to remember and then hang everything up on the location.

Thirdly, repeat the tongue twister from memory, going through the images placed in the locations in the previous step in your imagination. Repetition from memory is very important!

Liguria can give the following recommendations for training diction using tongue twisters:

read it every day for a month 3 times a day
read slowly until you can pronounce each word clearly
pay attention to the endings of words, most often these are the ones we “chew”

Read the tongue twister, memorize the accents and develop your diction.

If you have any results or questions, let me know in the comments!

But trying is not torture!
