You folks are driving me crazy. It is too much for me to take. Hark and I'll learn ya a thing or two!

to:
preposition, expressing movement, direction, limit of movement etc.
adverb, toward a point , person, place, or thing​

I went to the store.

too:
adverb, also, in addition to, to an excessive extent, very, extremely.​

Gomer went too.


two:
noun/adjective, the written decimal representation of the binary number 10.​

We bought two pies. That was too much to eat.

Don't forget their, there and they're; also commonly interchanged inappropriately.
 
Finally! I make this mistake when I am in a hurry but there is no excuse for not knowing how to use them correctly!
 
Your two kind Quaffer, to help uss peepole who get confused on proper gramer. Your an GREAT!!
 
I'd suggest people work on more basic issues here, such as when to use "your" and "you're". Also people putting a space before a period/exclamation point/question mark. What's with that?

iknw ryt !
 
Sorry Quaffer, I left school before grammar was invented. I will have to try and learn from the young one's, if I can understand what they say.
 
I too must thank you for posting how to properly use these words. Nuts, looks like I can't put all three in one sentence, I have to settle for two.
 
And the brings us to the exciting conclusion on the debate of when to use Well and Good.

Make sure to join us next week when we discuss the proper uses of a semi-colon, also known grammer's "hipster" punctuation.
 
When it is too much trouble to remember to spell it "a lot", I recommend using one of these two simple substitutions "plethora", or "surfeit".

:lol:
