A small percentage of people have clear pronunciation in oral communication. Everyone knows about its importance, but are unable to put required efforts to improve their pronunciation in their spoken language. Most people also lack the required tools and techniques to bring clarity in their speech. This book would act as one of the tools to bridge the gap to achieve exceptional oratory from basic or below average levels. Quality in words pronunciation is appreciated by all, irrespective of the spoken language. That is necessary for fine and effective speech, which is required in all professional and personal endeavors. Many capable people fail to achieve their potential due to lack of good communication skills. An effective way to deliver the ideas and messages is a must for personal and professional success. This fact had always been correct, it is true now and it will remain valid in the distant future. According to Oxford dictionary a ‘Tongue Twister’ is “a sequence of words or sounds, typically of an alliterative kind, that is difficult to pronounce quickly and correctly, as, for example, ‘tie twine to three tree twigs’.” We have created and collected a large list of alliteration and tongue twisters for the readers looking for speech challenges and fun.
