The Power of "Too"

When something is more than enough (and this is usually a problem), we use the word too before the word describing it.

Look at the text: → "Many paths are too narrow."

What does this mean? It doesn't just mean they are narrow. It means they are so narrow that people cannot walk safely. It is a negative thing.


Try these patterns for your daily life:

  • Too hot \rightarrow I cannot drink this coffee.
  • Too expensive \rightarrow I cannot buy this shirt.
  • Too loud \rightarrow I cannot sleep.

Key Rule: TOO + DESCRIPTION = PROBLEM
