Both too and enough are used to talk about how much or how little of something there is. We use too to describe
the negative effect of having more than necessary. We use enough to describe the effects of having/not having the
right amount of something.

Too does not mean the same as very. We only use too when we are describing something negative.
/ I've g o t too much work. I can't come out tonight.
X -This job is great beeause-you g e t paid too-much money.
Enough always comes after the adjective.
/ You're not old enough to work here.
X You're riui enough old tu work here.
Both too and enough can be followed by for.
/ It’s too hot for me in this office.
/ You’re not old enough for the army.
