JUST
By JhordanC. Garcia Buelvas
Just
We use the adverb just before a verb in the simple past form or an
adverbial expression of time (past) to express a brief preceding time
Diferences between “just”
and “only”
Differentiate these two words may perhaps be difficult because both can
sometimes be translated into Spanish as "only". When they do, their use is
generally alternative, can be used "just" or "only"
interchangeably. However, there are some differences between the
two words you see below:
Just:
As an adjective meaning "righteous" (of justice).
For example:That Was Just decision.That was a just decision: Look that "just"
in the example because this is an adjective qualifying the noun "decision". _
As an adverb (a word that modifies the verb) has many meanings.
For example, "just" : I've just seen her. I see it. Note: "Just" to mean "just" is
often used with the "Present Perfect".
Only
Only is also an adverb and means "only". As I said before, may be
synonymous with "just" sometimes.
For example, we say, "He's just a boy", or alternatively, "He's only a
boy". Look atthe possibilities with "only".
"Only" has other meanings, for example, we say: He is an only child. He is
an only child.
