How to use Enough in a Sentence
Hi Guys!
In todays blog post we are going to learn how to properly use enough in a sentence. The first thing that we need to be aware of is that the word enough can be used in a sentence with adjectives, nouns, verbs and even adverbs! So lets go through and check out the different ways that we can use enough.
With Adjectives.
- The girl wasn’t tall enough to ride the rollercoaster
As tall is an adjective we need to put enough afterwards.
With Nouns
- There wasn’t enough interest so the event was cancelled.
In this sentence, the word interest functions as a noun so we need to put enough before.
With Verbs
- I am unhealthy because I don’t exercise enough.
When used in a sentence with Verbs we put enough afterwards.
With Adverbs
- I didn’t run quickly enough to beat my marathon target.
Similarly to with verbs and adjectives, we put enough after adverbs when used in a sentence together.
Let’s see if you can complete the sentences using enough and the words in brackets.
- (Money) I don’t have ______________ to go shopping.
- (Old) Are you___________ to get a drivers license.
- (Fast) My old car is too slow, it isn’t____________
- (Eggs) Yes there are____________ to bake a cake.
- (Warm) It isn’t____________ to go to the beach today.
- (People) Where can I find____________ for the game?
