What is the proper name for a tongue twister?

Answer 1

A tongue twister is a special kind of "loaded sentence." A "loaded sentence" is one in which a sound is repeated in many or most of the words. For example, the following sentence is "loaded" for the sound "r": Round the rugged rock, the ragged rabbit ran. Some loaded sentences tax the neurological system and lead to errors, most often to the interchange of sounds or to inappropriate repetitions. Such loaded sentences are popularly called "tongue twisters." For example, the following sentences are loaded for the sound "b," but because the normal patterns of speech (in English) lead to "slips of the tongue" when the sentences are spoken, they are called "tongue twisters": --Rubber baby buggy bumper.

--Black bugs blood. To notice the slips of the tongue, you may have to try to repeat each sentence rapidly several times.
