1) One 37-cent stamp is ENOUGH for this envelop.
2) One 37-cent stamp is SUFFICIENT for this envelop.
Which is correct?
And how can we decide whether to use 'ENOUGH' or 'SUFFICIENT' in a sentence?
Thanks in advance.
I think they are both correct but I think you would want to add "postage" after either one.
You could also use "adequate".
Hmmm...
E-mail instead...
Either one is correct, in this case. And it's "envelope" not "envelop". "Envelop" is a verb that means to enclose or cover something completely.
As for how to know when to use each one in a sentence, I don't have an easy answer, except that "enough" is probably used more frequently in everyday usage.
