notes-mind-only

NOTES : Mind the ONLY/FIRST ....

The "only" position shift changes the meaning of the original setences.

"The following sentences should make the meaning differences clear:

Only Linda ate the pizza today. (Nobody else; only Linda.)
Linda only ate the pizza today. (Linda didn't cook it or buy it; she only ate it.)
Linda ate only the pizza today. (Linda didn't eat anything else today; only pizza.)

Linda ate the only pizza today. (There was only one pizza, and Linda ate it.)
Linda ate the pizza only today. (Linda didn't eat the pizza yesterday or before;

only today; OR, Linda didn't eat the pizza until today.)
Linda ate the pizza today only. (Linda didn't eat the pizza yesterday or before; only today.)

The rule of thumb is this: put only as close as possible to the word it should modify.

Look out for very words like ONLY, FIRST, etc. They can contribute to change in meaning in a subtle way.
