(While 'únicamente' can be translated, it carries a specific emphasis on exclusivity that may not have a one-word counterpart in ENGLISH.)
Used to indicate that something applies to or is true for one thing, person, or condition alone; exclusively or solely. It emphasizes the restricted nature of an action or situation, often implying a stronger sense of limitation than only or just.
- Únicamente el presidente puede tomar esa decisión. — Only the president can make that decision.
- La exposición estará abierta únicamente durante el mes de junio. — The exhibition will be open solely during the month of June.
- Estoy aquí únicamente para discutir el contrato. — I am here exclusively to discuss the contract.
