[Origin: bef. 900; ME; OE ānlich, ǣnlich. See one, -ly]

—Synonyms 5. solitary, lone. 7. peerless; exclusive.
—Antonyms 5. plentiful, common.
—Usage note The placement of only as a modifier is more a matter of style and clarity than of grammatical rule. In a sentence like The doctor examined the children, varying the placement of only results in quite different meanings: The doctor only examined the children means that the doctor did nothing else. And The doctor examined only the children means that no one else was examined. Especially in formal writing, the placement of only immediately before what it modifies is often observed: She sold the stock only because she needed the money. However, there has long been a tendency in all varieties of speech and writing to place only before the verb (She only sold the stock because she needed the money), and such placement is rarely confusing.
