N3Degree

N3 · Degree · あまりにも + adjective / verb / noun

too; excessively

あまりにも + adjective / verb / noun

あまりにも emphasizes that the degree is beyond what is expected, often with surprise or dissatisfaction.

It can modify adjectives, verbs, or a whole clause, and emphasizes degree more directly than あまり.

説明があまりにも早くて、半分しか理解できなかった。

The explanation was so fast that I could only understand half of it.

Do not use it as plain とても; it often means the degree is excessive.

あまりにも means the degree goes beyond expectation.
