Tongue twisters (or, as the French call them, virelangues - that which torments the tongue) are very useful for correcting your speech. Not only children, but also adults who are involved in public activities (actors, tour guides, politicians, journalists, teachers, TV presenters, etc.) or who simply want to speak beautifully need tongue twisters.
The French language is not easy to pronounce, which is why tongue twisters will always be useful for both adults and children, at any stage of learning. Even real “pros” in the language are sometimes forced to turn to tongue twisters to keep their pronunciation and diction at a high level.
History and specificity of tongue twisters
No one knows exactly when the first tongue twisters appeared, but we can assume that they arose quite a long time ago. Almost all folklore collections have a small section with tongue twisters, since they form part of the oral folk art, but are considered exclusively a comic genre.
A tongue twister is based on a combination of sounds that are difficult to pronounce together. First of all, tongue twisters were invented in order to “amuse and amuse the people.” They reflect the worldview and history of the people who created them, their morals, traditions, customs, humor and common sense. Since few people managed to pronounce tongue twisters correctly and quickly, this created a comic effect.
In addition, in most cases, tongue twisters narrated an event in an embellished form, and a difficult to pronounce combination of sounds added an ironic flavor to the story, and the more often the “performer” made mistakes, the more fun the audience had! Often it was nonsense, although it sounded rhythmic and did not require much effort to remember. In tongue twisters you can find the names of animals and plants, proper names - this is what makes the tongue twister educational.
There are many sounds in French that do not exist in Russian, and which cause difficulties for people learning it. Such difficulties are overcome by memorizing and practicing tongue twisters following the speaker, as well as by listening to them repeatedly.
On the Internet you can find special videos in which native speakers pronounce the necessary tongue twisters. It is best to repeat after them and monitor articulation and intonation - this is one of the best methods!
How to learn tongue twisters?
You need to pay attention to French tongue twisters in every lesson, especially in entry level language learning. There are several rules so that pronouncing tongue twisters is not meaningless, but, on the contrary, efficient process.
- It is necessary to translate tongue twisters into Russian. It is difficult to memorize incomprehensible phrases whose meaning you do not understand.
- We train with the pronunciation of the most difficult words, paying attention to enchainement (melodic linkage of sounds in speech) and iaison (pronouncing unpronounceable sounds at the junction of words in some cases).
- Slowly, syllable by syllable, we pronounce the tongue twister in French until it sounds without hesitation. We try to actively articulate, monitoring the position of the speech organs.
- We silently articulate the tongue twister several times, and then pronounce it in a whisper.
- Then you need to say the tongue twister out loud 3-5 times, but a little faster.
- We pronounce the French tongue twister meaningfully, correctly placing the semantic stress and paying attention to the intonation. Note: it is quite acceptable to work with 2-3 tongue twisters at once.
- We learn the tongue twister by heart.
If you can say a French tongue twister three times quickly without stopping, you've done a good job at it. It is better to work more slowly, but carefully - do not “drive the horses” and teach in a hurry, without making the necessary effort. Better yet, find the right motivation to make learning easier.
Tongue Twisters
How to interest the most demanding students, children, in learning tongue twisters? They do not have the perseverance that adults (and not all of them) can boast of. A sure way to interest a child is to come up with a funny story related to a tongue twister, illustrate it with a funny picture, or ask the child to draw a funny picture himself. The main thing is to make the process not boring and fun, so that the child does not perceive learning tongue twisters as torture, otherwise this “punishment” will be associated with the language. It is important to cultivate a love of language from a very early age, even using such simple methods.
- Les chaussettes de l'archiduchesse sont-elles sèches, archisèches! - And the Grand Duchess’s socks are dry, highest degree dry!
- Trois petites truites crues, trois petites truites cuites. - Three small fresh trout, three small boiled trout.
- Rat vit riz, Rat mit patte à ras, Rat mit patte à riz, Riz cuit patte à rat. - The rat sees the rice, the rat puts its paw on the edge, the rat puts its paw on the rice, the rice burns the rat’s paw.
- La roue sur la rue roule, la roue sous la rue reste. - The wheel rolls along the road, but the road remains under the wheel.
- Napoleon cédant Sédan, céda ses dents. - Having lost to Sedan, Napoleon lost his teeth.
By constantly practicing pronouncing tongue twisters, you will improve your phonetic skills and sound no worse than native speakers. Tested by both experience and time! Don't be lazy, and your efforts will not go unnoticed. When you come to France, even the French themselves will appreciate them.

In oral communication great importance has a pronunciation. With the help of sound means, not only words are distinguished (cage- cache), but also times (jeparlerais- jeparlerai). Incorrect pronunciation of just one sound in a word complicates or even disrupts the process of intercultural communication.
To ensure that speech is clear, intelligible and understandable, working with tongue twisters can provide invaluable help. They are the best means of achieving clarity of speech at any tempo, since there cannot be a faster tempo than the tongue twister. Rich sound design, abundance of alliteration, frequent repetitions, assonance, internal rhymes make them more attractive.
To improve or correct pronunciation, you can use the following stages of working with tongue twisters.
Demonstration of tongue twister, recorded on tape or voiced by the teacher.
At first, the tongue twister should sound at a fast pace, i.e. the way it should be pronounced. And only then slowly, syllable by syllable. Also K.S. Stanislavski taught how to develop a tongue twister through very slow, exaggeratedly clear speech. From repeated repetition of the same words for a long time, the speech apparatus is so adjusted that it learns to do the same work at the fastest pace.”
Work on the content of the tongue twister.
It is very important not to pronounce the tongue twister mechanically, but to pronounce it meaningfully. Students need to know what they are saying. The meaning of some words can be revealed using synonyms, antonyms, and commentary. You can use illustrations or offer several translation options for tongue twisters to choose from.
Working on pronunciation.
It is necessary to work out each sound in isolation, then the word containing this sound, the phrase and, finally, the entire tongue twister. First, the tongue twister is carefully read to oneself, then pronounced several times silently with emphatically clear articulation, then slowly, in a whisper, quietly, louder. Then the tongue twister is pronounced out loud, continuously, but still quite slowly, and finally loudly and quickly. If pronouncing a sound is difficult, you need to practice using specially selected tongue twisters in which this sound is often repeated:
Si mon tonton tond ton tonton, ton tonton tondu sera.
Les chaussettes de l'archiduchesse sont-elles sèches? Sont-elles seches?
- Ellesontseches, archisèches.
To make working on pronunciation more fun, you can use the following types of work.
Games usage:
Putting tongue twisters together.
Learn cards where to write the name. Players must name a tongue twister with this name.

Many tongue twisters are built on wide vowels, since the ability to open your mouth widely and freely is especially important for acquiring good diction. They need to be practiced like exercises for the lower jaw.
Before moving on to French phrases, you should work on more consonants [t- d] before narrow front vowels. In this position, many experience not only paralysis, but also affrication, the so-called “clattering” and “clattering”, which depends on the insufficient tension of the speech organs forming an obstacle, on the method of their opening, due to which, instead of a single vowel, a double vowel appears, consisting of plosive fricative: [t- s].
During the exercise, you need to make sure that the tip of the tongue does not end up between the teeth, press it more firmly to the alveoli and make the closure more sharply. In Russian pronunciation there are two variants [t- d]: 1) the tip of the tongue touches the alveoli of the upper teeth; 2) the tip of the tongue touches the inner surface of the lower incisors. You can practice any of them in the exercise; usually the second option gives good results faster.
Exercises to practice [ t - d ]:
Say the following pairs of words many times in one breath:
1.Aunt-uncle...
2.uncle-aunt...
3.aunt-children…
4. woodpecker-nets…
2. Practice the following phrases as tongue twisters:
1. Katya goes to the theater with Aunt Dina.
2. Vitya weaves nets for Uncle Tima.
3. Uncle Dick, do you see wild swans?
4. Tina’s little clock ticked quietly in the silence of the dark mansion.

Those, those, those and those, those, those.

Those, those, those and those, those, those.
Tongue twisters serve not only as a kind of tool for improving pronunciation. Being a work of oral folk art, the roots of which go back to the distant past, tongue twisters allow students to come into contact with the culture of the country of the language they are learning.
Getting to know them evokes positive emotions in students, which significantly influences the motivation to use the French language as a means of intercultural communication.

Why do you need to learn tongue twisters? Why are they taught not only by children, but also by adults? To become an actor, radio announcer, politician, advertising agent, teacher, manager, TV presenter, singer, tour guide, etc., there are many public professions, you must have beautiful speech and clear diction. Without this it is difficult to achieve success. A TV presenter or politician with speech and diction defects will only cause laughter. Also K.S. Stanislavsky said that with poor diction, “words and syllables blur, collapse and slide like loose soil, the tongue gets stuck.”
Tongue twisters are the easiest way to improve your speech. Anyone who has problems with diction can improve it by using tongue twisters as a tool. This will help him when studying foreign languages. Working with French tongue twisters in French lessons helps improve students' diction, improves pronunciation, and develops phonemic awareness. In addition, this work can be made fun and interesting, and students of any age enjoy doing it. Children need to be shown that there is nothing difficult about this, anyone can learn it. A striking example This is the life story of the ancient Greek orator Demosthenes. As a child, he accidentally heard a speaker speak and realized that the power of words is a serious weapon. And Demosthenes began to train hard in order to eventually become an outstanding speaker himself. This is how Plutarch writes about this: “With exercises, he tried to correct his shortcomings and weaknesses; he overcame his unclear, lisping pronunciation, putting pebbles in his mouth and thus reading excerpts from poets from memory. I strengthened my voice by running, talking on steep climbs, and by saying several poems or some long phrases without taking a breath.”
Do you think that learning tongue twisters is boring and uninteresting? Not at all. This is a fun form of training the muscles of the articulatory apparatus. When playing sports, we train the muscles of the arms, legs, etc., and here we will train our jaws, lips and tongue, so that even at the fastest rate of speech there is no “porridge” in the mouth and the speech does not become illegible and slurred. Tongue twisters are the best means of achieving clarity of speech, as there cannot be a faster tempo than a tongue twister.
Tongue twisters are a genre of oral folk art, they were invented for teaching. Previously, tongue twisters were called “pure twisters.”
I must say that complex tongue twisters This is a great workout for adults too. People whose profession is related to public speaking, constantly use them as speech exercises. Sometimes, to learn a tongue twister, you have to try really hard. It is no coincidence that the English tongue twister is “ tonguetwister", which means " what torments the tongue" French " virelangue"is translated exactly the same way.
A tongue twister is, as a rule, a short syntactically correct phrase in any language with artificially complicated articulation. Tongue twisters contain sounds that are similar in sound, for example, combinations of sounds that are difficult to pronounce; they can repeat the same consonant sound many times; they can use rhyme, homonyms, and puns. Usually tongue twisters have funny content.
You can work with French tongue twisters in almost every French lesson, devoting just a few minutes to this work. Students usually quickly master the stages of working on a tongue twister and are happy to demonstrate the result.
So, how to learn tongue twisters? Everything must be done step by step:
1.First we translate the tongue twister from French into Russian
2. We train the pronunciation of the most difficult words, marking all cases of liaison and enchaînemen.
3. We pronounce the tongue twister very slowly several times, syllable by syllable until it sounds without hesitation.
4. Then we articulate the tongue twister several times silently, trying to pronounce all the sounds of the French language especially clearly
5.Then we pronounce the tongue twister in a whisper, preferably more than once.
6. Say the tongue twister out loud again, a little faster, but still quite slowly, 3-5 times
7. We pronounce everything meaningfully, with the right intonation and the correct semantic emphasis.
8. You can train 2-3 tongue twisters at once.
9. We work on each group of tongue twisters for several days, learning them by heart.
10. A prank twister is achieved when you can say it at a very fast pace three times without stopping.
We compare French tongue twisters with Russian and English ones. Students themselves, using the Internet, select funny French tongue twisters and translate them. During the lesson they are trained to pronounce them correctly. When the tongue twisters are learned, we hold a competition for the best reading of French tongue twisters, and a competition for the best illustration for them (see pictures). Then the students try to compose tongue twisters themselves. This is an approximate model of working with French tongue twisters in French lessons.
