Than and Then, To and Too
Captions available
The idea
Than compares; then marks time or sequence. To shows direction or begins an infinitive; too means also or excessively; two is the number.
In practice
"She finished faster than her brother, then stretched." "The box is too heavy to lift."
Where people slip
Ask what the word does: compare or tell time, point the way or add.
