Slides 1 and 2 provide students with some
explanation on the use of enough and too.
Students practice on slides 5 to 17.
By Lilian Marchesoni
Enough means sufficient and usually follows adjectives and adverbs.
He didn’t get the job because he wasn’t experienced enough.
Too means more than necessary, and it precedes the adjective.
You never stop working. You work too hard.
Enough can also be used with nouns. In such cases, enough usually precedes the word it modifies.
He didn’t get the job because he didn’t have enough experience.
The opposite is too much… / too many...
There are too many people and not enough chairs.
