The term excessive denotes an adjectival form that expresses either an extremely high (“very very”) or an exaggerated degree (“to”) the property being described.
In German colloquial language, the usage form “very very” + positive has developed for the first function, analogous to the French “très très” + positive.
The second function is paraphrased adverbially in German with the help of the particles "zu".
