What's da reason?

Why are a lot of people using ‘da’ instead of the word ‘the’? Are they using it as ‘short for ‘the’? Is it supposed to be a ‘cool’ way of saying ‘the’? Is it because they’re lazy? Or are people forgetting how to spell?

on dictionary.com, some of the meanings are: *a mens hairstyle from the 50’s.

  • stands for Department of Agriculture
  • District Attorney

Thanks for your comments, Carol
