Usage Note

Demasiado functions as an adverb when it modifies a verb or adjective (habla demasiado, es demasiado caro) and as an adjective/determiner when it modifies a noun, in which case it agrees in gender and number: demasiada azúcar, demasiados errores. Unlike mucho, it always implies excess beyond a desirable limit.

Examples

"Hablas demasiado rápido para mí."
