Too is a word meaning excessive or excessively, . For example, too much, too many, too large, too heavy. It can also be used as an alternative to "also" or "as well," e.g. "He is very tall, and handsome, too" and "I want to go too."

To is a preposition, a bridge word to a location or some end. For example "Let's go to the park" and "I like talking to you" ('you' being the end instead of a physical location like a park). This particular word can get a little confusing when you get to phrases like, "He's coming to", meaning the subject is waking up, "arriving" into consciousness, which is classified as a location.

"To" also creates the infinitive or name form of verbs, such as to do, to be, to go.

"Too" is used to mean "also" or "excessively", while "to" is a preposition indicating direction or location. For example, "I want to go to the store" and "I want to go to the store too" are correct uses of each word.

"Too." Quick, general idea: If the next word is an adjective (it says something about a noun) then use "too". The box [noun] is too big [adjective] The water [noun] is too hot [adjective] etc too fat too angry If the next word is a noun [a thing] or a verb [an action word], use "to" to Maine [noun] for vacation to the movies [noun] too tired [adjective] to cut [verb] the grass
