Only one! I've already deleted 15 from the list. Explanation: 1. Here we need to use the sign of exclamation after the word "one". 2. We should use some extension after the number "15" to make the expression clear. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 8 hrs (2010-10-13 01:48:58 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Example: You deleted only one! I've already deleted at least 50 from the list. |

Just/only one! I have alreday done (=deleted) 15! Explanation: Several variations are possible. But I think there's a sense of surprise/exclamation, so "!" seems better than "?". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 9 hrs (2010-10-13 02:44:48 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Important: Please read "already" in place of "alreday" (it's a typo) Yet another variation may be: Just/only one! I have already done (=deleted) as many as 15! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 days (2010-10-17 18:42:28 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- I would like to express my sincerest thanks to Laura Ann for her prudent remarks and a profound sagacity in selecting the answer. Thanks also to all my colleagues for shedding light on the meaning for their own points of view. Best regards to all !! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 days (2010-10-17 18:43:32 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- from their own.....
