Grammar
Only/except/but
Are these sentences correct and do they mean the same:
1-I'd introduce you to her, only you'd win her.
2-I'd introduce you to her, except that you'd win her.
3-I'd introduce you to her, but you'd win her.
The first one is by Jack London. I have taken it from a dictionary.
I suppose they are all suppose to mean: I will not introduce you to her, because you'd win her if I did. If that was not the case, I would introduce you to her.
Gratefully,
Navi.
