КАТЕГОРИИ:






A)one (adjective/pronoun) used with another/others

A a/an and one (adjective)

1 When counting or measuring time, distance, weight etc we can use either a/an or one for the singular:

£1 = a/one pound £1,000,000 = a/one million pounds (See chapter 36.)

But note that in The rent is £100 a week the a before week is not replaceable by one (see 2 F)

In other types of statement a/an and one are not normally interchangeable, because one + noun normally means 'one only/not more than one' and a/an does not mean this

A shotgun is no good (It is the wrong sort of thing)


 

One shotgun is no good (I need two or three)
