Hello! I have just studied the grammar ' in order to ' I have some problems with understanding.
My sentences with " in order to "
I went to the shop in order to buy some water.
She studies English in order to watch English film.
But! I can also use only " to " and the meaning of the sentences will be the same. Am I right?

"to" and "in order to" are the same, but "in order to" is much more formal.
By the way, it's better to place a question like this in the "Questions/Answers" section of italki, you'll get a lot more responses that way. "Notebook" is for writing diaries, etc. as writing practice.

Right ! There are many alternative words, that can be used to alternatively instead of repeating same word again and again. Using new alternative words makes good impression to listener or reader.
I am also a learner from India.
Good luck !
