Ok, you know the three forms of the word "to." Well, I can't tell you how many times I have seen it used incorrectly. Here's an example:

"I want to go to the mall too!"<-----The correct use of the word.

And one of my friends said this:

"I want to go to the mall two!"

Hello? Two? The number after one? I don't think so.

I have to say, even though that's entirely dumb, I can see why uneducated folk would think that 'two' should go there.

I'm the second to go, so I'm number two. Hm?

With just a little guidance, these words will have their rightful place in a sentence.
