Question

too much和much too有什么区别啊？

Answer 1

这两个结构看似很接近，使用时很易犯错误，其实它们有很大区别。

1、too much “太多，过多”用做形容词或代词，可以修饰不可数名词或用来代替不可数名词。

例：There was too much noise in the next door.

You shouldn’t have eaten too much.

toomuch也可以放在某些动词之后，做状语，表示程度，这些词有：work，talk，walk，thank等。

例：She does talk too much, doesn’t she?

2、much too “实在，太”用来修饰形容词或副词，其实too就是用来修饰形容词或副词，在它前面加上much则更能表示程度“太”。

例：The dress is much too longforme.

The problem is much too difficult for us to solve.

另外，too+adj./adv之前若想要加强语气，除much之外，还可以使用a little，a lot，far和all等来修饰，但不能使用very或quite。

例：The soup is a little too sweet for me.

toomuch除做状语外，还可以用做主语、表语、宾语和定语。

例：Too much was happening all at once.(做主语)
I have got too much to do.（做宾语)

Jack drank too much wine yesterday.(做定语)

She is afraid the trip will be toomuch for me.(做表语)
