Default Re: The red one it is.

That's what I thought but why then do you both think 'the red one' is the subject in our example.

The one we will buy is the red one.
*The red one, the one we will buy is.
The red one, it is.

Is this a separate example in your opinion, since 'it is the red one.' has a seemlingly different meaning of naming or labeling the thing?
