Sound More Natural with One Little Word: Reducing the Word "TO"

Learn how to speak clearly, sound more natural and finally feel confident and comfortable in English. Join my FREE Own Your English training: www.clearenglishcorner.com/ow...
If you’ve been following my lessons, you know that a reduction is a word that sounds different in spoken English than you would expect it to when looking at the written word. In this lesson, we’re going to practice pronouncing one of the most common reductions in English: TO.
Integrating this reduction into your spoken English can help you achieve a more natural sounding rhythm.

    @Shanmugasundaram Hi I'd like to point out a mistake you made on your first sentence. When you said "YOU'VE SAID", This, you might think is a past tense but actually is the "Presen perfect", So you should've said "YOU SAID" That's the correct form. Anyways nobody is gonna split hairs over small mistakes. Good luck on your Journey, I hope you reach fluency soon, By the way don't get mad, This was just a constructive-cristicism, I make mistakes too as a non-native-speaker of English Greetings🖐️

    Saudações respeitosas, sem afastar-me do respeito que lhe é devido. Good Evening! Sou grato por sua vida e atenção dispensada. É muito raro encontrar alguém como "Você". Amei sua aula; me deixou a vontade e com muita sede de continuar a estudar a língua inglesa. Casei novo, logo vieram os filhos, dei prioridade a eles em tempo integral. Me doei por inteiro, pois fui moleque de rua, passei por vários lares e não queria que eles estivessem relatando o que estou à fazer neste momento. Tivemos, minha esposa e eu, 2 lindos e maravilhosos casais. Temos 3 netos. Com a idade, (60 anos) não tenho mais aquela disposição. Também não tenho o vigor e a saúde da juventude, mas vou tentar. Você é Raridade! Amazing. Bondade, graça e sabedoria, são como um manancial de águas vivas que jorram do seu interior. Graça, é preciso graça para ensinar. É dom de Deus. Isto não lhe falta. Muita generosidade de sua parte dedicar tempo para ensinar. Dom Pedro II, Imperador do Brezil, disse que "Se não fosse imperador, desejaria ser professor. Não conheço missão maior e mais nobre que a de dirigir as inteligências jovens e preparar os homens do futuro. D. Pedro II Fortaleza Ceará, 21 de setembro de 2021. Nordeste do Brasil.
