Dear native English speakers,
I have a little question.
What does "just" mean in the following passage?
One day he was discussing this dream with a teacher. He was shocked when the teacher just said, "To make an idea like that come true, you'd have to go to the top university in Japan. For you, that's impossible."
Can it be replaced with "only"?
Thanks in advance.
