Do NOT say TO like TOO or TWO!

In this English pronunciation lesson I’ll show you how to pronounce the word TO. Here’s a FREE cheat sheet that shows you everything you need to know! https://rachelsenglish.com/cheat-sheet
And you’ll see why TO is actually NOT pronounced the same as TOO and TWO in spoken English. This lesson will help you make your English accent more smooth and natural by showing you exactly how the word TO reduces. Unfortunately we learn to pronounce TO the same as TOO and TWO. Even native English speakers! But the reality is that TO almost always reduces when speaking English, whereas TWO and TOO don’t. You’ll hear many examples of how native speakers reduce TO in conversation. I’ll help you understand how the reduction of TO functions in spoken English and then I’ll take you through a training session to help your body start getting it right!
