Answer 1

Answer 2

For Ian - from the SD dictionary: Sólo (adverb) (únicamente) only; (exclusivamente) solely; merely; just solo quiero verlo I only o just want to see it; es solo un teniente he's only a lieutenant; he's a mere lieutenant; no solo A sino también B not only A but also B; solo con apretar un botón at the touch of a button; me parece bien solo que no tengo tiempo that's fine, only o but I don't have the time; ven aunque solo sea para media hora come even if it's just for half an hour; con solo que sepas tocar algunas notas even if you only know how to play a few notes; solo con que estudies dos horas diarias by studying for as little as two hours a day; tan solo only; just; solo que ... except that ...; viajará sólo un par de días he'll only be away for a couple of days

In the past the standard spelling for this adverb was with an accent ([sólo]). Nowadays the [Real Academia Española] advises that the accented form is only required where there might otherwise be confusion with the adjective [solo].

Yes, that may be what the dictionary says. But I can assure you that in Spanish you simply do not say "solo nos conocimos" In this context acabar de is the best. acabar de=to just have done something. You can say acabamos de conocernos - kramer12, Jul 25, 2012
