Here's Alejandro, from Monterrey in northern Mexico, as he tries to teach me his favorite trabalenguas, or tongue-twister.
La ciudad de Parangaricutirimicuaro
Está parangaricutirimicuarizada.
El que logre desparangaricutirimicuarizarla,
Buen desparangaricutirimicuarizador será.
(The city of Parangaricutirimicuaro
Is parangaricutirimicuarized.
He who manages to un-parangaricutirimicuarize it,
Will be a great deparangaricutirimicuarizer.)
