Listen to the audio and complete the sentence below.
Outsourcing is usually faster because the external team can BLANK BLANK BLANK our project.
focus
This means to give full attention to something.
solely
This means only or exclusively, without distractions.
on
This preposition is used to indicate the specific subject receiving attention.
Focus on means to give full attention to a specific task or subject.
Solely means only or exclusively, without any other responsibilities or distractions.
When people say focus solely on, they are combining both ideas: giving full attention only to one specific thing.
Notice that solely is placed between focus and on to emphasize that there are no other distractions. For example:
He needs a quiet space to focus solely on writing his code. – This means he wants to give all of his attention to coding, without any interruptions.
