Can someone explain to me when the proper time to use the words 'to' and 'too' are?

Question

I think I totally use the 2 out of context!

Answer 1

"to" is a preposition used to begin a phrase indicating direction, "to the store", "to the school", etc. "too" is a word meaning "also", "as well as", "additionally", etc.

Answer 2

USE OF TO:
○ To indicate the infinitive form of a verb, like: "to dance" - She taught me to dance.
○ To show the relationship between at least two words in a sentence, in this case "to" is use as a preposition: Berth gave the box to me ("to" shows the relationship between the words "gave" "box" and "me")

USE OF TOO:
○ To mean "as well" or "also": I have been there too (I have been there as well/ I have been there also)
Hint: you could replace "too" with "as well"/"also"
○ To express the idea of "in excess" or "more that it should be": Bert eats too much and is too chubby.

I tried TO catch you, but I was TOO slow
to catch: use as verb infinitive form
too slow: expresses the idea of slowness in excess

I need TO talk TO you and see Sharon TOO. Do not leave it TOO late.
to talk: use as verb infinitive form
to you: use as preposition
Sharon too: means "as well"/"also
too late: expresses the idea of lateness in excess)

too should be used when you are talking about a quantity or an addition... for example "that's too much ketchup on my hamburger" or "i like that, too!" otherwise, use "to"

too= also
