Learn English meaning of 'too little, too late'

S&W, like in your country here too repairing computers costs a lot.

In fact, it’s so expensive that when we have a major problem with our computers we never try to fix them. We just put them aside and buy a new one. 

@scienceboy i am sorry to hear what happened to your brother.what can we do to stop cruel things like that?that remined us healthy is all.

@shoba oh i repaired my computer last week not like someone here whose is under warranty.I changed video card and that cost a lot.

Oh, I’m so sorry to hear about your brother-in-law, ScienceBoy. It’s a pity that he failed to act as early as possible. 

How lucky you were, dear Julito! You know, life is pretty strange sometimes. Some people run and board the bus at the last minute. And some miss the bus just by a few seconds. 

ohh Iam a friend with these word because I always say it to my dear husband. When I ask him to do things he sayes ok dear hold a sec I have something to do, I will come back to fix it, but for my bad luke he forgot to do it for days and poor me a have to fix it my self , I say to my self ( If you want something to be done do it your self )  and whan my sweet husband remember what I had asked him to do. I said to him it too little, too late dear I had fixed it my self. He said Iam really sorry I swear I had forgot about it. But in the end I forgive him. Ohh, Iam so kind, am I ?:-P :)))))

Dear Shoba , same with me , I have a Sony Vaio laptop , all of a sudden the screen  blackened  , ohh , ohh, this is serious , i thought. I went to the dealer  and they said that the screen needed to be replaced. If is not  under warranty it costs a lot of money . I was extremely lucky that  the period of warranty  ( lasted a few days more) ) had not expired, otherwise, i would have to hear ” i am sorry, too few, too late.   ouch, it hurts !!! 

I remember having read about a glamorous actress that used this expression when a   famous singer who had a big crush    bought a bouquet of flowers  and gave it to her. ” Too few, too late ”  After thus being rejected  i believe  that the singer`s ego  was” Crushed”  

You are right Shoba, thank God it cost you a laptop only not your health. My brother in law lost his life due to being too late. He started losing weigh suddenly and feeling pain in his stomach but he didn’t consult a doctor till the pain was unbearable. It was too late. He had cancer and it was spreaded all ove his body already.. 

My laptop was making weird noises and kept going blank every now and then. But I didn’t pay that much attention to its cry for help. 

When it finally stopped working altogether, I rushed it to the nearby electronic shop. After checking it, the repairman said with a serious face (like the doctors you see in movies), “I’m afraid, you’re too little, too late, sister. We could have saved it if you had brought it earlier.”

Sometimes, being too little, too late could cost you an arm and a leg, or even lives. 

Maybe the ghost wants to tell them she or he doesn’t like that food! or seems the ghost be a child that she or he try to play with them!
As I remember anyone hasn’t ever told me that my efforts ware too little, too late! but in our life sometimes we where, or we will in such situation, some times you know it’s late to do some work but you try and it works on the last seconds! and maybe some times is too little, too late.

Amy, I think it sould be “no matter”. 

I haven’t been told it was too little, too late. I hope I will never head that too, like Mahtab.

“Now matter how badly you want to help”, no matter or now matter?

“Now matter how badly you want to help”, no matter or now matter?

Im worried you finally find a ghost there! :)))

I still think there is a rat in the office or someone wants to make a joke with his friends! ;)

I cant remember if anyone has told me what I did was too little , too late but Im sure the feeling after hearing that will be very disappointing!

I hope I never hear that from anyone!

Oscar again.Why don’t they let Oscar go and install camera suvillance and fund out what on earth it is.where is brain ,who is the leader to deal with oscar ,Brian should stand out and make a reasonable explaination.

@la princesse la vie good point Brain is a sleepwalker.that should be rat 

I know this quote from movie in which the main actress is going to breakup with her boyfriend,but the man want to save their relationship,at that time ,she would say too little ,too late.

Was the mess made by Oscar? Well, we agree that Oscar doesn’t exist.

Who made it? Hmm, it depends on where Brian is. He said he’d handle it, and he was supposed to be sleeping at the office that night. 

But no, it’s not Brian. Why would he do all of that. He could’ve eaten the foods, but not making a mess by them. I think it would be some kind of animals at last. Or maybe Brian is a sleepwalker :))

Too little, too late, had I been told that before?! Yeah, but it was me telling me that it was too late.

It was an exam on physics last year, and I really always hated physics, and because I’m a last-moment person, I just studied it hours before the exam, but found out that unlike other subjects I could get it together easily, that one needed more time, so I failed it and took it with me to the next year (This year, I mean) And I worked hard for it this time, like 5 hours per day for 4 days before the test, and finally I passed it. 

It was too little, too late. I could have avoided failing at the first time if I had worked hard, but I always choose to learn it the hard way.. Bad me :(
