to 在元音后 → da

这里先给大家列一下哪些是元音,哪些是辅音:

元音
单元音:[i:][i][ɔ:][ɔ][u:][u][ə:][ə][a:][ʌ][e][æ]
双元音:[ei][ai][ɔi][əu][au][iə][εə][uə]

辅音
10对清浊辅音:[p][b][t][d][k][g][f][v][θ][ð][s][z][ʃ][ʒ][tʃ][dʒ][ts][dz][tr][dr]
3个鼻音:[m][n][ŋ]
3个似拼音:[h][r][l]
2个半元音:[j][w]

*不要把元音、辅音的概念和元音字母、辅音字母搞混了。元音字母是a, e, i, o, u,其余21个字母都是辅音字母。

da 的发音多见于 go 之后;另外还是要注意,如果 to 需要被强调或者 to 后面没有其他单词,则 to 不发成 da。例如:
A: ﹡Kin﹡ya fix this? (Can you fix this?)
B: There's no way to.
