The story of the "to"

The word "to" reduces all the time. You will even notice that names, such as "The Today Show" are pronounced with this reduction. On TV, they will say, "The T'day Show." On the other hand, you often hear people saying a regular "to" when thinking of what to say next. So reduce "to" in words like "today" and "tomorrow" and in complete thoughts, as in "we're going t'the store now."
