Discover LudwigGenerally, "about only" is not a commonly used phrase in written English.
It could potentially be used as a colloquial expression, but it would not be considered grammatically correct. Here is an example of how "about only" could potentially be used in informal speech: "I'm not sure about only having bananas for breakfast. I think I need something more substantial." This sentence could potentially be used in spoken language to express doubt or uncertainty about the idea of only having bananas for breakfast. However, in written English, it would be more grammatically correct to say something like: "I'm not sure about only eating bananas for breakfast. I think I need something more substantial."
