To, Too, Two

Believe it or not, people mix these up on a pretty regular basis.

To is a preposition. It generally refers to something going from one location to another. It can also mean arriving at something.

• Examples: John is going to the store. Our profits went from $100 to $1000 in just over a month. When he broke up with her, she was driven to tears.

Too means also, as well, or in addition. It can also mean more than wanted/needed or excessive.

• Examples: Jenny wants to go to the store too. He was driving too fast not to be pulled over by the police.

Two means the number 2.

• I have two bottles of coke in the fridge.
