In a sentence
I don't have enough money
How it works
が (subject) marks the subject — the thing there isn't enough of, here お金 (money). The verb 足りる (be enough) shifts to its plain negative 足りない (not enough), so this is casual, with no polite です (is) or ます (polite) at the end. Literally it says “money isn't enough” rather than “I don't have enough money”.
