(1) ORIGIN They were originally the same word, as they are still in Geramn (“zu”) –
(2) PRONUNCIATION The difference started as an emphasis. It’s always like that. “Too” is pronounced like “two”. Although “à” can be pronounced as “two”, it is most often pronounced with the indistinct vowel of “o”. Hence contractions like “wanna” (to want), “gonna” (to go to), “havta” (to have).
(3) GRAMMATICALLY “Too” is an adverb. “To” is a preposition.
MEANING: ALSO
(4) “Too much” often means “too”: “I am leaving, and you are also coming” – or “You are also coming”.
(5) “Too much” can also designate an excess. “Are you going too far? “You ate too much.” “You go there very often.”
DIRECTION OF
(6) “To” before a noun or preposition usually indicates a goal, purpose, or direction: “You are going to London, ten minutes to four,
(7) “To” is the normal introduction of a verb in the infinitive, “Are you going to waste my time?” “To be or not to be.”
(8) “To” before an infinitive can always indicate a goal, purpose or direction. “Are you going there to meet Kate?”
