[too much vs much too]- 팝송으로 too much, much too 잘 구분하자

오늘의 포인트 : Too much vs Much too

Too much 다음에는 딱 떨어지는 "명사"

간단하지만, 실제로 대화하면서 가장 잘 틀리는 표현이 아닐까 싶습니다. 그리하야, 어떻게 하면 요놈을 헷갈리지 않고 자연스럽게 쓸 수 있을까 고민하던 중 마침 예전에 즐겨 들었던 Queen 형아들의 불후의 명곡 .....

" 팝쑝" 으로 실마리를 풀어 가 보고자 합니당 ^^ 

Queen : too much love will kill you

I 'm just the pieces of the man i used to be  ~ Too many bitter tears are raining down on me 

I'm far away from home and I've been facing this alone 

For much too long 

I feel like no one ever told the truth to me

About growing up ~and what a struggle it would be ~ 

In my tangled state of mind ~ I 've been looking back to find 

~ Where i went wrong 

(Too much love) will kill you if you can't make up your mind 

Torn between the lover and the love you leave behind 

You're headed for disaster

caz you never read the signs 

(Too much love) will kill you every time.

 

Much too 다음에는 딱 떨어지지 않는 "형용사" 혹은 "부사"

Julian Lennon : It's much too late for good-byes.

Ever since you've been leaving me
I've been wanting to cry
Now I know how it feels to you
I've been wanting to die
But it's much too late for good-byes
Yes, It's much too late for good-byes

Time has gone since i've been with you
We've been starting to die
Now it seems you don't care for me
I don't understand why
But it's much too late for good-byes.
Yes it's much too late for good-byes.

Ever since you've been far away
I've been wanting to fly
Now i know what you meant to me
I'm the one who should cry
And it's much too late for good-byes
Yes it's much too late for good-byes.

Too much VS Much too 안 헷갈릴려면 어뜨케 해야 하나 ?

☞ too much + 딱 떨어지는거(명사)

ex) Too much love will kill you.        much too love

☞ much too + 딱 안떨어지는거(형용사/부사)

ex) It's much too late.      too much late

한가지 좋은 방법 ~!

요거는 문법으로 ~ 머는 머를 수식하고 원급이 어쩌고 저쩌고 ~much 가 어쩌고 저쩌고 ~ 그러하니 Too much love가 되야 한다. much too late 가 되야 한다.

라고 익히면, 보통 시간이 지나면 자연스럽게 잊어버리는 것 같습니다. 말 그대로 입에 붙었을때 영구적으로 정확하게 사용할 수 있을 것 같은데요 ....

간만에 queen 형아들이랑 Julian Lennon 형아 노래 한곡 땡기시면서 ~!

자연스럽게 머릿속에 남겨 보자고용 ^^
