Anonymous  +  260332 Mon, 28 Aug 06 09:58 PM Hi all, How do I spell 'to' as a verb in infinitive? I want to study. ( Just a simple example); I say 'to', sounding like 'two' or sounding like 'too' or neither one nor the other? Regards. Anonymous Pronunciation, Verbs, Regards

That is, when you use the word 'to' contrastively, it sounds like 'too', or 'two'. In most cases, however, the 't' is followed by the vowel sound of 'put', or a schwa.
