A tooter who tooted a flute . . .

Many years ago I learned a silly "tongue twister" that I still can recite very fast from memory.  I saw this online recently and found it interesting that I had learned it a little differently.  Instead of a "Tudor," I had learned it as a "tooter."  The second version shared here is how I always have said it.


A Tudor who tooted a flute 
tried to tutor two tooters to toot.
Said the two to their tutor,
"Is it harder to toot?
or to tutor two tooters to toot?”


My version:

A tooter who tooted a flute 
tried to tutor two tooters to toot.
Said the two to the tutor,
"Is it harder to toot?
or to tutor two tooters to toot?”
