Just和Only是英语中特别常见的两个词
他们俩表示的意思也差不多，所以常常容易混淆。小编这一次就给大家分享一下Just和Only都有什么异同吧！
1.Just的定义
①Recently
Just可以用在动词之前，表示刚做过某件事，比如：
Be careful— I just washed the floor, and it’s still wet.
( I washed the floor a few minutes ago.)
小心点，我刚刚才拖了地，还是湿的。
He just finished a big project.
(He finished the project very recently.)
他刚刚才完成了一个大项目。②只，仅仅
I have just one brother.
我只有一个哥哥。
I thought you were hungry, but you ate just half of your sandwich.
我以为你饿了，结果你只吃了半个三明治。
2.Only
Only在大多数情况下可以和Just互换。
Only two students came to class on the day before Christmas.
= Just two students came…
My kids only use the internet for schoolwork, not for playing games.
= My kids just use…
如果Just表示“刚刚”，它们就不能互换。注意在不同语境下的just：
*— Did you clean the whole house?
— No, I just washed the floor.(I only washed the floor.)
*—Why is the floor wet?
— Because I just washed it.（不能用only替代）
注意在不同位置中的just：
I just ate two pieces of pizza.
我刚吃了两块披萨。
I ate just two pieces of pizza.
我只吃了两块披萨。
