When to use Scope Adverbs 只 and 到处

Read scope adverb + predicate as a sentence tool, not just as vocabulary. First locate the main action or claim, then ask what 只 adds to it.

他只喝水。

He only drinks water.

我只认识他一个人。

I only know him.

Common traps

  • Do not translate scope adverb + predicate mechanically from English; check the Chinese word order first.
  • Keep 只 close to the part of the sentence it controls.
  • Do not overuse the pattern in every sentence; use it when it adds a clear role.
