Tongue_twister
This guy wanted to say "PeÅ¡ci Å¡Ä?istite cestiÅ¡Ä?e."

For me, the entire Slovenian language is a giant, neverending tongue twister. So, this collection of 16 tongue twisters from Slovenia is a bit like walking through a salon of horrors. The collection ranges from one-word stumbling blocks to long verbal massacres with lots of Å¡ and Ä? combinations. English translations are helpfully included for each.

My personal favorite is probably: ÄŒe Ä?ebula ne bi imela Ä?e bi bila bula. [An onion (Ä?ebula) without "Ä?e" would be a bump (bula).] Well, the English translation doesn’t do it much justice. To be honest, I mostly like it because I can say it, unlike the first two on the list. Those just make me go fetal.

If you manage to breeze through the Slovenian ones, you can always try your hand at some different languages. The site currently has 2,680 entries in 105 languages, from Albanian all the way to Zulu.
