about the phrase"For one"

HI,

I 'am a new one here, may i ask you a question about th phrase "for one" I also searched and as i knew people use "for one" in two cases

1-I for one

2-For one thing( sometimes they just use for one...)

My question is that

in #1 can i use this contruction for any personal pronoun, such as he for one, she for one, they for one ...(.g every body didn't like her. Tom for one did like her)?By the way.do i need comma after subjec (I,for one,...or I for one)?

both #1 and #2 is it an adverbial?

thanks very much

She, for one, has never been camping. For one thing, we need to get a permit to camp in the forest. These are a bit different.

  • I believe there have been two recent threads.
  • I'll see if I can find them.
