olumsuz bir anlam katar.
“Too” farklı kullanım yapılarına sahiptir:

too + adjective / adverb

“Enough” ifadesi “yeterince, yeteri kadar, yeterli” anlamında kullanılır. Olumlu cümlede kullanıldığında, eylemin
yapabileceğimiz ölçüde olduğunu ifade ederken olumsuz cümlede kullanıldığında ise eylemin yapabileceğimiz ölçüde
olmadığını ifade eder.
