Now we're going to talk about a different series of words that you want to repeat over and over between four to ten, or perhaps a little bit more times. What I'm doing is I'm giving you different combinations of vowels and consonants that actually work different parts of your mouth. They work different articulators. So, as long as you have some reasonable combination of words similar to the ones I'm giving you, you'll be fine. Now these are almost like tongue twister combinations. Maybe you don't like tongue twisters; maybe you don't want to go into full blown lengthy tongue twisters. These sets of words are where you're going to use a part of your mouth and you're going to immediately have to come back and use that exact same part of your mouth. Like in "Toy boat." You want to repeat, toy boat, toy boat, toy boat, toy boat. What's happening is the placement of your mouth is having to move very rapidly to go back to a certain area, back to a certain area. So, you want to take toy boat and repeat it as fast as you can, at least eight or ten times. And then, the same thing happens with "Unique New York". Unique New York, unique New York. You're working certain articulators, and again, with both of the words, and be careful with unique New York, that you hit those consonant sounds. It would be very easy to go "uni New York, uni New York". Well, if you skip over those consonants, it's going to make it where you can't say the words. So we're looking for unique New York. Combinations like this where we're jumping right back to the same sound.
