so what about "how to do something" is that to or too?

If you're not sure, see if you can substitute 'go' or 'as well' into the sentence and see which makes more sense.

"How [would I] as well do something" (too)
"How [would I] go do something" (to)

obviously 'to' makes more sense.

What is the difference between to and too oh heavenly people who think you're better because you can spell.

to as in "where did you go?" "I went to the movies". Hence one 'o'.

Too as in "as well", "I wanted to go to the movies too. It's spelled like 'to', but it has an extra 'o' as well.

One of the great deficiencies of English is that we don't have a plural for "you", my students hated it, especially as there's two types of plural for it in Russian. I think it was pretty natural that we came up with "youse" and "y'all" here and in America respectively, and I let my students use it for colloquial conversations.

Most other languages have a plural of 'you'. German has 'sie'.
