How to use single in a sentence?

  1. Al Gore:

    We’re still putting 162 million tons [of greenhouse gas] into it every single day and the accumulated amount is now trapping as much extra heat as would be released by 600,000 Hiroshima-class atomic bombs exploding every single day on the earth, that’s what’s boiling the oceans, creating these atmospheric rivers, and the rain bombs, and sucking the moisture out of the land, and creating the droughts, and melting the ice and raising the sea level, and causing these waves of climate refugees.

  2. Susan Collins:

    Every woman legislator that I know takes a thick briefing book home every single night, and I remember (former Tennessee Republican) Sen. Fred Thompson … once saying to one of our male colleagues: ‘Susan has a secret. She prepares.’.

  3. Wynter Finley:

    I was really young and I think Raine had just been born, we were just waiting to get seated for lunch. And I kid you not, every single person was just staring at my mom. I didn’t understand it. But my mom is like, ‘You know sweetie, your parents are famous. They know who I am.’ Of course, I was really embarrassed… but looking back, she had such a presence. It was always all eyes on her.

  4. State John Kerry on Sunday:

    Every single meeting, everywhere in the world that ever took place with the Iranians, we have raised the issue of the American citizens, and we are working on the issue of the American citizens even now.

  5. Lisa Murkowski:

    I think we all know that there is no one single initiative that is going to be able to stop what happened in Florida or what has happened in — unfortunately — far too many other areas, where, again, you think there’s a level of safety and security and there’s not.
