why I´m too worry is wrong?

Question

Please which is the difference between I´m too worry and I´m very worried, and why I´m too worry is wrong?

Answer 1

Hi May.

Worry is a verb, so that is why that is wrong. You never say "I am" + a present tense verb. (You can use "I am"with participles..... I am worrying.)

You could say, "I'm too worried." That would be grammatically correct, but I've never heard anyone say it that way, because being worried is a bad thing. Therefore, any worrying is "too much." So for that reason, it would be very uncommon for someone to say, "I'm too worried."

"I'm very worried" is the same construction, only substituting "very" for "too". That says the person is muy worried.... a large amount of worry. And that is what you want to say.

I hope that helped.

e.g. "I'm too woried about the economy (or whatever) to even think about changing jobs (or whatever)." - samdie, Nov 9, 2009

"I'm too worry" is just not grammatically correct.

You could say, "I'm too worried." This means that you are overly worried about something and you feel that you are worrying more than you want to or should.

Or you could say, "I'm very worried." This means that you are extremely worried about something.

The difference is very small, but significant I think!

I hope this helped.

Not sure, but I think you meant to say "I'm too worry." is not grammatically correct. Looks like a typo - Nicole-B, Nov 8, 2009

Answer 3

"I´m too worried" means "I´m worried more than I should be."

"I'm very worried" means "I am deeply or strongly worried"

---

"I´m too worry" is wrong because worry is the raw verb. Let´s simplify it. Let´s remove the word "too." And let´s expand I´m to I am. Now you have...

"I am worry"

Am is a form of the verb "to be." And this is a construction where the word on the right of the form of "to be" describes the word on the left of "to be." Thus, the word on the right must be an adjective. (Or, it could be a name) For example:

I am sick. He is angry. They are dirty. She was sad.

The raw verb cannot be an adjective. But the past participle form of most verbs, which is used in various verb tenses, can also be used as an adjective.

For example, "broken" is the past participle of the verb "to break." It can be used as an adjective.

The broken toy is on the floor. The toy is broken.

"Worried" is the past participle of "to worry" and it also can be used as an adjective.

The worried man sat down. The man is worried.
