Hello.
Is the pronunciation of 'to' as [FONT="]/tu/ or [/FONT][FONT="] [/FONT][FONT="]strong form[/FONT][FONT="] [/FONT][FONT="]/tuː/ uncommon in spoken English? The transcription for 'to' in English File is [/FONT][FONT="] [/FONT][FONT="]/ə/ not [/FONT][FONT="]/tuː/ or [/FONT][FONT="]/tu/ in 'Nice to meet you.'
Is the schwa usually not clearly heard as well as not being stressed?[/FONT]
