Plural Forms of "one" in Russian (одни, одних, ...)
I'm trying to learn the declensions of the Russian numerals and stumbled upon an interesting feature: Even the word "one" (один) has plural declensions: одни, одных, одним, одних/одни, одними, одних.
Could anybody give me an example of its usage and/or explain the reason for that? I just cannot image how the notion of plural fits together with the notion of "oneness".
