bdlingle:That works. I think I'd translate it as, "Only one solitary light lit the street." Thus, "only" is "nur" and "solitary" is "sola."sergejm:Here is an example, there 'nur' and 'sola' meet together:Couldn't it be: "Only one lone latern illuminated the street"?
'La straton lumigis nur unu sola laterno'

sergejm:Here is an example, there 'nur' and 'sola' meet together:"The street was lighted by only one single lantern." Other words would also work in place of single such as lone, sole, isolated, solitary, lonely, etc.
