Don't Say 'TOO' & 'TO' The Same | English Pronunciation Practice

 

Do these two words sounds the same in spoken English?

TO vs. TOO

Seems like they should, right?

But surprise surprise- "to" and "too" actually do not sound the same.

In this latest Clear English lesson, we're playing with the difference between these words.

Because sometimes the smallest little changes can make a big difference.

Developing a natural sounding rhythm in English is all about creating contrast. Important words are emphasized- we streeetch them a bit to make them stand out.

Less important words are quicker. Softer. 

Enhancing this contrast in your voice can make a huge impact on your overall sound.

So let's practice together!
