(Uno y uno hacen dos.)
We use one as a number, e.g.:
| One and one are two. (Uno y uno hacen dos.) |
We also use one for impersonal hom; see personal pronouns.
We also use one or ones to substitute for countable nouns, e.g.:
| a large knife or a small one (Un cuchillo grande o uno pequeño) |
| A: Would you like big apples? (¿Quiere manzanas grandes?) |
| B: No, give me the small ones, please. (No, póngamelas pequeñas, por favor.) |
