Abstract

This article analyzes the lexical-semantic features of tongue twisters. Tongue twisters are an interesting and rich field of folklore. They are phonetically complex and help to improve pronunciation. Puns, alliteration, and assonances are common in rapid utterances. The article analyzes the lexical units of tongue twisters and their semantic aspects, and how they are related to the cultural heritage of the people is explained through examples.
