While we can say "This question is too difficult for me", we cannot say "too much difficult". In this sentence, both too and much function as adverbs, but not both of them quantify difficult.

The question is difficult.
How difficult is the question?
The question is too difficult for me.
How much too difficult for you is it?
The question is much too difficult for me.

In the sequence, much quantifies too, not difficult.
Additionally, ‘much’ is used as an adjective to modify a non-count noun. Example:much time; much waste; much hard work.

‘Much’ is also used as an adverb to qualify verbs.
Example: I am much pleased; This is much the same as the others.

‘Too’ is an adverb used to qualify an adjective or a verb. In the case of adjective: too difficult; too little; too late.

To further modify the adjective ‘much’, we could add the adverb ’too’ to the above: too much time; too much waste; too much hard work.

To further modify the adverb ‘too’, we could add the adverb ’much’ to the above: much too difficult; much too little; much too late.


The correct answer is A(much too difficult). @Myschool please correct it.

A. much too difficult ✅
– Perfect English!
This means: "It was way too hard."
"Much too difficult" = very, very difficult.
Correct answer!

B. too much difficult ❌
– Nope. You can say "too much work" or "too difficult", but you can't mix them like this. It's bad grammar.

C. difficult too much ❌
– Omo this one sound like pidgin. In English grammar, it's completely wrong.

D. much difficult too ❌
– This one no just get head.
We don’t say “much difficult.” Instead, we say “more difficult” or “very difficult.”
