Sunday challenge - QU tongue twisters
|
|
Hi everyone
I�m after some tongue twisters that use the three sounds of the QU spelling
kw sound - quick, quiet, queen, quack, requested, equivalent etc
(and it has to be �clean � Redbull, not like �the queen requested a quiet quickie from the quack� ... - lol)
k sound - unique, plaque, risque, (can you think of other words for me?)
qu sound - queue (can you think of other words for me?)
Do you know of any tongue twisters that incorporate all these sounds?
Can you make some up for me?
Cheers
Jayho

The antique queen was quick to quit the queue.
The quiet quail has a quite unique squeak.
Quentin Crisp acquired a quite cute unique antique Queen Anne rocker. |

Thanks everyone
Here �s my collection:
Quick kiss, quicker kiss, quickest kiss
The quiet quack quit asking quick questions during the quirky sequel
Quentin quietly quivers and quakes while feeling queasy after quoting quiche
The quail was quite quiet when he quickly questioned the queen why she quit
The quota was equivalent to quills in the quicksand
Are you qualified to question the quality of the quarterly quiz?
