4- Two different ways to pronounce the English word 'the'

Hi. I'm Tim and this is my Pronunciation workshop. Here I'm gonna show you how English is really spoken. Come on, let's go inside. You know, I've been thinking about decorating my workshop - bringing a little bit of colour to it.

I'm gonna go in and get the paints: you listen again and see if you can hear the two different ways the definite article is pronounced. I'll see you inside. I prefer the blue one to the orange one. I prefer the blue one to the orange one. I prefer the blue one to the orange one. If it's not stressed, the pronunciation of the word 'the' will change depending on the word that follows.
