Only when I’m driving at night can I read bottom to top. That’s not a good sign. And it’s frustrating as all fuck to ONLY EXIT.

only bus and bus only mean the same thing, read it whatever way you want, they’re both grammatically valid

[–] lars@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Both are

  • absolutely grammatically valid
  • nearly antonyms of the other

This is a level of hell that has no comparison

  • nearly antonyms of the other

Is that the case? I'm not a native speaker and I assumed it means the same?

[–] wizenheimer@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

They definitely mean the same thing

  • only exit: this is the one way and one time that you can ever leave the highway

  • exit only: the one thing you are allowed to do in this lane is leave the highway

I guess they’re not exactly antonyms. Sorry.
