Usage notes
When it is unclear from the context whether is the number (pronounced ) or the indefinite article (pronounced ), the former is written with acute accents:. In all other cases it is written without. For example, een van die unambiguously means “one of those”, so it is written without acute accents. However, een appel could mean both “one apple” and “an apple”, so if the former is intended one would write één appel.

When only the first letter of is capitalised, the acute accent is usually dropped from the upper case E: Eén.
