What is a tongue-twister?
A tongue-twister is a phrase that is designed to be difficult to articulate properly. Tongue-twisters rely on similar but distinct phenomena, unfamiliar constructs or other strange combinations of the sound and meaning of words. Tongue-twisters use a combination of alliteration and rhyme. They have two or three sequences of sounds. The same sequences are repeated with an exchange of similar sounds.
Why does saying tongue twisters out loud help Build Neural Networks?
Talking loudly improves your voice significantly. Memorization of seemingly nonsensical sentences forges new neural networks. This benefits motor skills and memory acuity as well as expressiveness.
