Stands In for a Noun
When 'unos' is used by itself, it's doing the job of a noun you just mentioned. This helps you avoid repeating the same word over and over. For example: '¿Viste los pájaros? Sí, vi unos.' (Did you see the birds? Yes, I saw some.)
Confusing 'Unos' and 'Algunos'
Mistake: “Thinking there's a huge difference between 'unos' and 'algunos' when used as pronouns.”
Correction: In most everyday situations, 'unos' and 'algunos' mean 'some' and can be used interchangeably. 'Algunos' can sometimes feel slightly more specific, but it's a very subtle difference. Don't stress about it!
