Argentine Tongue Twister: Erre con Erre Guitarra

 I learned this one while on my mission.  It is a good way to practice the erre sound which is the double R but sometimes shows up without the double R but at the beginning of a word.  The erre sound is like that a child makes for a truck.  

Erre con erre guitarra

Erre con erre barril

Rápido corren los carros, 

[cargados de azucar] del ferrocarril.

Erre like the erre in guitar; Erre like the erre in barrel, rapidly run the trains loaded with sugar, of the railroad. 

I learned this without the bit about sugar.

Poetry I like: The Woodchuck: Children's Tongue Twister

 I saw several yellow-bellied marmots (woodchucks) at the Bannock County museum running around the outside exhibits.  I caught a couple pictures as they ran around.  

Reminds me of a childhood rhyme. 

"How much wood would a woodchuck chuck; If a woodchuck could chuck wood?"  This poem actually has a second part-the answer.  "A woodchuck would chuck as much wood, as a woodchuck could chuck, if a woodchuck could chuck wood."  Woodchucks actually do not chuck wood, but dig burrows in the ground.  Their name comes from the Algonquin word for them, Wuchak.
