Sobre este título

Hey there! It’s Michael here — and welcome back to Speak Naturally in a Minute from Happy English. I’m here every Sunday with a quick one-point lesson to help you improve your pronunciation, rhythm, and intonation.

Today, let’s talk about another tiny word that changes in natural American English: TO.

In everyday English conversation, to usually reduces to a quick “tuh” sound.
  • I went to bed, sounds like I went tuh bed
  • I need to study, sounds like I need tuh study.
  • I walk to the station sounds like, I walk tuh the station


The OO vowel sound of to becomes the unstressed schwa sound ə
Like, Nice tuh meet you. I hafta leave. I went to work

Let’s practice: Repeat after me:
  • I went to work
  • They go to school
  • I have tuh study

Now, you’re speaking like a native!

Hey, thanks for listening! And remember to follow and subscribe so you won’t miss the next Happy English Podcast and next week’s Speak Naturally in a Minute. Until next time, keep learning and keep it cool.
