§Grammar and usage

Too + adjective + to-infinitive has a negative meaning ('He is too weak to walk' means he cannot walk); too ... to and so ... that ... not have similar meanings ('too tired to study' = 'so tired that I could not study'); too (excess, negative) is different from very (high degree, neutral: 'very hot' but bearable; 'too hot' means a problem); too is used in positive sentences ('I can swim too') and either in negatives ('I can't swim either'); too much + uncountable noun and too many + plural noun.

यह बहुत पूछा जाता है: too + adjective + to-infinitive का अर्थ नकारात्मक होता है ('He is too weak to walk' का अर्थ वह चल नहीं सकता); too ... to और so ... that ... not के अर्थ समान हैं ('too tired to study' = 'so tired that I could not study'); too (अधिकता, नकारात्मक) very (ऊँची मात्रा, तटस्थ: 'very hot' पर सहनीय; 'too hot' अर्थात समस्या) से भिन्न है; सकारात्मक वाक्यों में too ('I can swim too') और नकारात्मक में either ('I can't swim either') प्रयुक्त होता है; too much + uncountable noun और too many + plural noun।
