A thought comes to mind.

One thought comes to me.

Olly,
ONE thought means ONLY ONE thought - not two, three or more.

ONE THOUGHT COMES TO MIND is perfectly correct. https://www.google.com/search?sxsrf=ACYBGNQ7wb5anDekaATI1T3QyGrqoPmXUA%3A1579196962620&ei=IqIgXsG0JZSqtQbKwKPgAQ&q=%22one+thought+comes+to+mind%22&oq=%22one+thought+comes+to+mind%22&gs_l=psy-ab.3..33i299l2.1783737.1786715..1786892...0.0..0.301.4318.0j26j1j1......0....1..gws-wiz.......0i30j0j0i8i7i30j0i8i30j0i8i10i30.-koZ_t-msi8&ved=0ahUKEwjBzfKP14jnAhUUVc0KHUrgCBwQ4dUDCAo&uact=5

Uly,

Please don't think I'm arguing, I just want to clarify ONE thing to myself.
I guess you know that in Russian, "один/одна/одно" has the same meaning as "A" article in English, like in: "Мне одна баба на работе сказала, что тебя собираются сделать начальником цеха".

I saw a couple of examples you gave on the link: "When one thought comes to mind, it brings with it others." or "Only one thought comes to mind seeing that.» Both emphasize the quantity - ONE, as opposed to more than one.

In your translation «There’s one thought that haunts me» you also emphasize the domination of that thought - it’s the only/main thought that hunts you.»

So, my question is:
Do you use ONE in English with the same meaning as «A» article? Does this sound natural: «One woman told me they’re going to make you the shop foreman» ?

Good question, Alex. In the context of this post, ONE means AT LEAST ONE. The way I interpreted it is as in this snippet: [husband] We’re going to have trouble paying rent again this month. What do we do? Any ideas? [wife] One thought comes to mind. I could always sell my old scooter. I never use it anymore and it’s in great shape.” ...for example. But we use ONE in lots of different ways in English, so it’s really on a case by case basis.

Under, как говорится, stood 🙏
