There are only two rules that apply. First, say the tongue twisters fast. It is easy to say the tongue twister when you say it slowly. So the challenge is to say it as fast as you can. Second, repeat the tongue twister a certain number of times. For longer sentences the size of a paragraph, you may only say it once but fast! Words and phrasal tongue twisters can be repeated 3-5 times.
