Groundhog Day

In North America, February 2nd is Groundhog Day. February 2nd is half way between winter and spring. A few hundred years ago Germans brought Groundhog Day to North America. A groundhog is a small animal that hibernates all winter in a  hole in the ground. Another name for this animal is woodchuck.
Say this tongue twister as quickly as you can.

How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a wodchuck could chuck wood?
