1. To

• Purpose and Use: The word to is a preposition. It is most often used to indicate direction, place, or purpose.
• Examples:
  • Direction or Place: “I’m going to the store.”
  • Purpose: “She wants to learn Spanish.”
• How to Remember: Think of to as the word you would use to show where something is going or why it’s happening.

2. Too

• Purpose and Use: The word too is an adverb and is used in two main ways:
  1. To mean “also” or “in addition.”
  2. To indicate “excess” or “more than necessary.”
• Examples:
  • Also/In addition: “I want to come, too.”
  • Excess: “This coffee is too hot.”
• How to Remember: If you could replace the word with “also” or “very,” then too is usually the right choice. Plus, too has an extra “o,” almost like it’s “extra” in meaning!

3. Two

• Purpose and Use: Two is the number 2 in written form.
• Examples:
  • “They have two children.”
  • “I’ll be there in two minutes.”
• How to Remember: Two is the only one of the three that represents a number, so when talking about the quantity “2,” this is the form you need.
