Identify the correct transformation of the sentence given containing the adverb “too”. The girl is too tall to wear the dress. Correct Answer The girl is so tall that she cannot wear the dress

The word ‘too’ is used as an adverb to describe that the verb expressed is more in level than expected. In the given sentence, ‘too’ is used to tell that the action ‘wear’ is difficult since the girl’s height is more than what is needed to fit into the dress. The correct translation of the given sentence is, “The girl is so tall that she cannot wear the dress”. Though other sentences sound grammatically correct the words ‘too…to’ is translated into ‘so…that’ which gives the same tone of excessiveness as that of given.
