Hi, I'm Saskia from BBC Learning English. Today, I'm going to tell you four ways to use the word just as an adverb.

One way we use just is for things happening at this moment.

"Do you want to go for a coffee?"
"Hang on. I'm just finishing this video."

Just can also mean 'only'.

"This book cost me just one pound."
"Wow! That was cheap!"

Just often means 'exactly'.

"What time is it?"
"It's just four o'clock."

"Saskia, here's a present for you."
"Thanks, it's just what I wanted."

You can also use just to emphasise other words and expressions. I just love this shirt.

So, that's four ways to use just. Just in time! Better go for that coffee!
