trop

too much

adverb troh Common

Also means

too many

Usage Note

Trop means too much in the sense of excess, but in slang it has flipped to mean 'so' or 'really' in praise, as in c'est trop bien!. The final 'p' stays silent, and the warning phrase trop, c'est trop is exactly the English 'enough is enough'.

Examples

"C'est trop cher pour moi."

Natural Translation

It's too expensive for me.

Literal Translation

It-is too expensive for me
