Usage Note

Suffisamment is the adverbial form of suffisant(e) ('sufficient'). It is typically followed by de before a noun (suffisamment de temps, 'enough time') and by pour before an infinitive (suffisamment grand pour entrer, 'tall enough to enter'). A common near-synonym is assez, which is slightly less formal.

Examples

"Elle n'a pas suffisamment dormi cette nuit."
