@Heivenknight Thanks! I'm glad you found it useful. All the best to you & your family in 2012! = )

That was fun. Some are like tongue twisters. I had to repeat the words: switch shirts. I mispronounced it the first time. On my way home from work some kids from the International School asked me to try this one:

The sixth sick sheik's sixth sheep's sick. We all had a laugh about it.

[TeacherMelanie]

@MsSheila541 That tongue twister is difficult even for a native speaker to say! : )
