Tongue Twister) Betty Botter's Better Batter

반응형

 

한국어에서 간장공장공장장은 어쩌구저쩌구 하면서 말장난하는 게 있듯이 영어에도 혓바닥이 꼬부라지도록 하는 tongue-twister라고 하는 것이 있답니다. 오늘은 B,T 발음 훈련을 위해 고안된 "Betty Botter's Better Batter"을 소개합니다.

 

Betty Botter's Better Batter

 

Betty Botter had some butter,
"But," she said, "this butter's bitter.
If I bake this bitter butter,
It would make my batter bitter.
But a bit of better butter,
That would make my batter better."
So she bought a bit of butter –
Better than her bitter butter –
And she baked it in her batter;
And the batter was not bitter.
So 'twas better Betty Botter

 

Bought a bit of better butter.

 

 

 

 

 

The key for better pronunciation is practice and practice and again, practice.

Betty Botter의 더 좋은 반죽

Betty Botter에게 버터가 조금 있었어요.

그녀가 말했어요. "하지만 이 버터는 써.

만약 이 쓴 버터로 반죽을 하면

반죽이 써질거야.

하지만 더 좋은 버터가 조금 있다면

반죽이 더 나아지겠지."

그래서 그녀는 버터를 조금 샀어요.

가지고 있던 쓴 버터보다 더 좋은 걸로요.

그리곤 그걸 반죽에 넣었죠.

그랬더니 반죽이 쓰지 않았어요.

Betty Botter가 더 좋은 버터를 산 것은

정말 잘한 일이었어요.
