English for Today by Ganiu Abisoye Bamgbose (GAB)
On “once”, “ones” and “one’s”
Once means only one time: I have only seen him once.
Ones is the plural of one; being more than one: These ones are not working.
One’s means belonging to one person: It is one’s duty to love one’s mum.
See the three words at play:
One’s intention to be good will lose its reward once you tell everybody about the ones you help.
Can you use them in a sentence too?
