The vocabulary words in the English language share a lot of common characteristics. Even when this sharing of characteristics somehow makes the learning and acquisition of any language easier, it also gives birth to a lot of confusions. These confusions usually never get cleared for the students of that language especially for the non-native students unless they are given specific and separated attention. Language teachers must tell the students about some of the common language errors that occur due to the close relationship between the vocabulary words. One of such most common confusions in the English language is the mistaken use of words to, too, and two. Given below is the description of these words and where you can use these.


To

To is one of the most common words used in everyday English language practices. It is very rare for the students to be mistaken when they are using this preposition. However, sometimes carelessness and not being proficient in the written skills may lead the students to misuse this word in various ways. The word two is used as a preposition especially to denote the transfer of action from one subject to another subject or object. The most common usage of 'to' is with verbs and nouns, however, it can be used in a variety of manners.


Too

'Too' is another commonly confused word that often misspelled or misused by many writers. 'Too' is used to represent the mutual experiences and to symbolize similarities. For example, "He like ice-cream and she like it too". If can also be used as an adverb to express a sense of excess. This is displayed in the sentence, "That tea is way too hot to drink!"


Two

Two is a number that is usually spelled as either to or too by writers in the sentences. This is an error that is often picked up during proofreading and it happens when writers rush their work. Other than representing the quantity, age, or frequency of something, this word 'two' does not perform any other function in the written English texts.
