If you are going to pronounce the word ''THE'', it is depends upon the first letter of the word you are going to read next to the article ''THE''.
Then, you should read the ''THE'' as ''DA'', because the first letter of the next word you are going to read is consonant.
But if the word is vowel, you are going to read like this.
Then, you should read the ''THE'' as ''DI'', because the first letter of the next word you are going to read is vowel.
When NOT to use 'the'
