   LESSON--1

Remove-Too

How to remove  'too"?🤔🤔

The beggar  is too poor to buy food for himself.

The beggar is so poor that he cannot buy food for himself.

The word too is replaced with "so"and the infinitive  "to"is replaced by three words."that he cannot"

If the subject is a female then ...that she cannot

Or if the subject is neuter gender  then ..that it cannot..

Examples

a)The boy is too weak to walk .👇

The boy is so week that he cannot walk .

b)The man is too clever to be deceived👇

The man is so clever that he cannot be deceived.

c)The girl is too young to cook.👇

The girl is so young that she cannot cook.

Now remember one thing.

If the question is in affirmative ,the answer will be in negative and vice versa.

Example..The boy is too foolish not to be deceived.

The boy is so foolish that he can be deceived.

(If the question  is in past tense, the answer will also be in the past tense)

For example:He was too tired to work.

He was so tired that he could not work.
