tongue or brain twister?



coi rodo poi kucli la jugban

I've put a pretty good - and famous - tongue/brain twisting essay to
my sound sample page. It's done by the well-known linguist 
Chao Yuen-ren for demonstration purpose. Have a look (graphic and
pinyin with translation) and listen to it (Mandarin and 
Cantonese).

s árnyékot írna lassan / a lassú délelött ... 
und langsam Schatten schreibt der / langsame Vormittag
and shadows written slowly / by a slow late morning's light...
