Repeat the following tongue twister after me!
Betty Boughter bought some butter, but she said the butter’s bitter.
“If I put it in my batter, It will make my batter bitter, but a bit of better butter will make it better than the bitter butter!”
So she bought a bit of better butter and put it in her batter and her batter was not bitter.
So Betty Boughter bought a bit of better butter and put it in her batter and her batter was not bitter.
