I have two assignments, one of them is done I have two assignments, one of which is done I watched a video tutorial that the teacher said the. As @petershor points out, in this case one is the pronoun, and would never be numeric I am really struggling to understand if i should use a or one in the below example This is derived from another thread that became too confusing with the wrong examples
Recently i've come across sentences that doesn't have one in it and it looks like odd to me because i'm used to say which one.? the sentences must be correct because they are from a grammar. I drew the shorter straw, so i was the one who collected the money The present tense i am the one refers to the current state of affairs You are the person responsible for carrying out that action, and your responsibility extends into the present I am the one who collected the money. Does but one mean only one or except one
The relevant line is our mental synchronization can have but one According to the corpus, from one another seems to be significantly more idiomatic than one from another One from another seems to be preferred over from one another by people with a fixation on parsing words in sentences, because the preposition from has a clear object Another separated from (or influencing) one. Alternatively, he's one and a half would be understood perfectly (presumably one would already know the child's gender) I think the full written form is preferable, but there's no one to stop you from writing the number in digits
He's 1½ years old is also fine. As an american, i mostly hear “on the one hand,” but use only “on one hand.” by the vagaries of fate, i'm a linguist One in “one hand” is a determiner, and two in a row is one too many, as in **the my hand.
