Trabalengua... Tounge Twister


Here is a tounge twister using the verb "como" (I eat) and "como" (how)... yes the exact same word and they mean two different things! 8th graders, remember extra credit if you can memorize and perform this for me!

¿Cómo como? Como como como

Si yo como como como, y tú comes como comes,

¿Cómo comes como como, si yo como como como?

If I eat like I eat and you eat like you eat, how do you eat like I eat, if I eat like I eat?
