We often use one instead of repeating a singular countable noun, don't we? Do we miss one one in the following excerpt? "Often, solutions appear immediately--just as happens when you throw out the 'wrong' software and put the 'right' software into your PC." The author of the statement might have written "... 'wrong' software and [...] the 'right' one..." (The author might've used a one for the second occurrence of "software".) Do you agree? |
