So / Too / Very / Really – Learn English Grammar


I know I’m so a good teacher right know
I’m such a good teacher today we’re
doing the differences between so and –
including very really a few other things
[Music]
there is a test at the end of this video
so stay for that also make sure you have
a pen and a piece of paper let’s begin
very is easy it’s more than normal so
you want to say wow this thing more than
normal
she is very pretty or she’s really
pretty
really is more common to save and very
but just know that they’re basically the
same thing she’s very pretty she’s
really pretty
but when this guy says wow she’s so
pretty
that adds some emotion to his sentence
wow she’s pretty it’s a bit stronger
than very or really with very really and
so the next word can be an adjective
like pretty or an adverb like this time
they’re talking about how well she
speaks French this guy yeah more than
normal
she speaks very well this guy oh my god
wow she speaks well she speaks so well
so very really with an adjective or an
adverb how about a noun let’s add a noun
to this girl that’s a noun we cannot use
so with a noun we have to change it
she’s such a smart girl such and so mean
the same thing but so for adjectives and
adverbs such for nouns that is an
adjective but this describes the noun
right
because of that we need such let’s
imagine you go to a shop you want to buy
some new jeans but there’s no price
excuse me how much are these jeans 500
pounds what what we know that so add
some emotion some wow that is a lot of
that thing so maybe he will say wow
they’re expensive they are so expensive
this guy however he will say to so what
is the difference between them to means
it’s excessive it’s more than you want
more than you like maybe it’s impossible
to do this thing now that’s why two
might seem bad in some situations so the
difference he is saying wow they are so
expensive but maybe he has enough money
it’s still a lot of money burn he has
enough this guy however I maybe I don’t
have enough money or it’s more money
than I want to spend that’s why he says
too too expensive so I’ve heard students
say wow it’s it’s too cheap it’s too
cheap they think it’s that’s a good
thing it’s well cheap cheap cheap but if
I hear too cheap I’m thinking in too
cheap must be a problem with that thing
the student should have said wow it’s so
cheap another example let’s say you want
to put on some makeup so you try no
that’s more than we need that’s that’s
too much that’s too much makeup No so
you try again now your friend thinks
you’re crazy
what is more than too much you can add
emphasis by adding
that’s way too much that’s far too much
way and far add emphasis so it’s more
than too much did this this is a
ridiculous amount of makeup if I were a
girl that’s probably what I would do
I’m not that smart now one thing about
this is we used too much why too much
because makeup is a noun an uncountable
noun with uncountable nouns
you’ll put too much uncountable noun
that’s way too much makeup honestly this
will probably be me very soon because I
eat too many donuts it’s excessive it’s
more than I need notice I used too many
not too much too many because Donuts is
a noun but it’s a countable noun
so with countable nouns too many if we
change the noun to food that’s an
uncountable noun now it’s too much ate
too much food I eat too many donuts you
know what I’m not sorry they’re
delicious okay final one we’ll put
everything we’ve learnt into this one
example this student has a test he opens
his test looks at the questions and
things wow this is harder than normal
what will he say he just wants to say
more than normal just that this is very
hard
remember he could also say this is
really hard and again really it’s more
common I use really more than very so
really more common to use further into
the test he sees oh my god this is wow
this is hard
wow this is hard what can he say this is
so hard so it adds emphasis it adds
emotion it adds that wow
this adjective or adverb now we add a
noun
remember with a noun how do we change it
such a hard test this is such a hard
test oh my god again so and such they
mean the same thing but such is with a
noun and remember to use the article if
it needs one this time he wants to say
no this test is impossible not so hard
but – this is too hard I’m leaving so
next time you want to say she’s too
beautiful or it’s too cold maybe you
want to say she’s so beautiful it’s so
cold
just be careful which one you mean okay
test time on your paper right one two
three four five I’m going to give you an
example sentence you have to decide is
it two or so number one when I’m talking
like this maybe it’s very difficult to
understand me it’s very difficult
I’m not even speeding up the video this
is just how I speak normally in that
example you couldn’t understand me
because I was talking hmm quickly or mm
fast which one do you think too quickly
or too fast why it was faster than you
could understand making it impossible
therefore too fast
number two I watch Game of Thrones but I
don’t like how many people die in Game
of Thrones I’m going to stop watching in
Game of Thrones people are dying
too many people are dying I don’t like
it I’m not going to watch anymore

too quickly
