In today's episode, which is about listening (NOT speaking), we are discussing how many native speakers from various backgrounds pronounce the word "to."
Here are the examples which are in the episode:
I’m going to go to the store later to buy some coffee beans.
Do you want to go out to the art gallery tonight?
She said she’s driving to the airport in the morning to catch her flight to Spain.
We wanted to go to the top of the mountain today but it’s going to rain.
I’m going to do it
I’m goin’ to do it (Do NOT write this way for tests/university/business)
I’m gonna do it (Do NOT write this way for tests/university/business)
I decided to make a plan for my day off tomorrow. I want to go to a used bookstore to look for this book I want to read. I invited my friend to go with me. She wants to grab a drink on a patio downtown after we go to the bookstore. I said yes, but I don’t like to have alcohol very often, so I’m only going have one drink. She’s going to go on vacation soon so I want to say goodbye. After I do that I’m going to go to the forest, I like to walk under the trees at sunset. Want to come with me?
