تلفظ خفن To

And in this video

Many students pronounce “to” as

/tu:/

which is sometimes incorrect.

Because when you pronounce it this way

it means:

“t_w_o”

as in number two.

Since the word ‘to’ is a preposition

it will normally be unstressed,

which means it will be reduced.

And in this video

I’m going to go over the correct pronunciation

of the word ‘to’ in conversation.

As I mentioned earlier,

the word ‘to’ on its own

is pronounced as:

/tuː/

But, when it’s in the sentence,

you pronounce it differently

you pronounce it as:

/tə/

a simple T with the schwa

/tə/

For example:

We went to dinner.

As you can see

I did not pronounce two Ts

I did not say:

We went to dinner.

I said:

We went to dinner.

Or, it might even sound as

/də/

D sound with the schwa sound.

one more time

/də/

Come to my party.

Let’s go to the house.

go to the

go to the house

Let’s go to the house.

Don’t forget to link

or reduce the word ‘to’.

It’s a very important part of

the stressed or unstressed nature of

American English.
