Some well-known English tongue-twisters are::

"Peter Piper"

Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers,
A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked.
If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers,
How many pickled peppers did Peter Piper pick?

But if Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers,
Were they pickled when he picked them from the vine?
Or was Peter Piper pickled when he picked the pickled peppers
Peppers picked from the pickled pepper vine?

"How much wood would a woodchuck chuck?":

How much wood would a woodchuck chuck
If a woodchuck could chuck wood?
A woodchuck would chuck all the wood that he could
If a woodchuck could chuck wood.

A woodchuck
Would chuck
All the wood he could
If a woodchuck could chuck wood.

"Sick hicks":

Six sick hicks nick six slick bricks with picks and sticks.

"Sister Suzie":

Sister Suzie sewing shirts for soldiers
Such skill at sewing shirts
Our shy young sister Suzie shows
Some soldiers send epistles
Say they'd rather sleep in thistles
Than the saucy, soft short shirts for soldiers Sister Suzie sews

"She sells sea shells":

Sister Sue sells sea shells.
She sells sea shells on shore.
The shells she sells.
Are sea shells she sees.
Sure she sees shells she sells.

"Night light":

You've known me to light a night light
On a light night like tonight.

Or a variation:

There's no need to light a night light
On a light night like tonight,
For a night light's a slight light
An a night like tonight.

"Thistle sifter":

Theophilus Thistle, the successful thistle sifter,
In sifting thousands of unsifted thistles,
Thrust thrice three thousand thistles
Through the thick of his thumb.

"Jello":

Orange jello, lemon jello,
Orange jello, lemon jello,
Orange jello, lemon jello.

This next one won grand prize in a contest in Games Magazine in 1979

Shep Schwab shopped at Scott's Schnapps shop;
One shot of Scott's Schnapps stopped Schwab's watch.
