Virelangue

A virelangue is a phrase (or a sentence or an small group of sentences) in ludic matter, characterized by its difficulty of Prononciation or oral comprehension, even of both at the same time. One also speaks about Horn-ears when a sentence is difficult to include/understand and gives the impression to be in foreign language.

The virelangues can be used as exercises of pronunciation in the training of the French foreign language, knowing for example that a sentence containing much of or mixing with and with will be particularly difficult to articulate for a person of Japanese native tongue. Some virelangues are built to lead a person to say an obscenity when they are marked several times of continuation.

The word virelangue is a Néologisme and a Calque of the English word tongue twister (which makes twist the language). But it indicates a type of very old Word game itself.
