Hei,
Please correct and suggest the better ones in Norwegian:

1)
Only the trees were somewhat damaged by last year's storm.
(Meaning: Nothing except the trees was somewhat damaged by last year's storm.)
Bare de trærne var en eller annen skadet av det siste årets storm.
      
2)
The only trees were somewhat damaged by last year's storm.
(Meaning: The few trees which existed were somewhat damaged by last year's
storm.)
De eneste trærne var an eller annen skadet av det siste årets storm. 
      
3)
The trees were only somewhat damaged by last year's storm.
 (Meaning: The trees were not completely damaged by last year's storm.)
 De trærne var bare an eller annen skadet av det siste årets storm.
      
4)
The trees were somewhat damaged only by last year's storm.
(Meaning: The trees were somewhat damaged by nothing except last year's storm.)
De trærne var an eller annen skadet bare av det siste årets storm.

 5)
The trees were somewhat damaged by last year's only storm.
(Meaning: The trees were somewhat damaged by the one storm which occurred last
year.)
De trærne var an eller annen skadet av det siste årets eneste stormen.

Tusen takk

Hei,
here's my suggestions:

1)
Only the trees were somewhat damaged by last year's storm.
(Meaning: Nothing except the trees was somewhat damaged by last year's storm.)
Bare trærne var noe/litt skadet av fjorårets storm(/stormen i fjor.)
      
2)
The only trees were somewhat damaged by last year's storm.
(Meaning: The few trees which existed were somewhat damaged by last year's
storm.)
De eneste trærne var noe/litt skadet av det fjorårets storm. 
      
3)
The trees were only somewhat damaged by last year's storm.
 (Meaning: The trees were not completely damaged by last year's storm.)
 Trærne var bare litt skadet av fjorårets storm.
      
4)
The trees were somewhat damaged only by last year's storm.
(Meaning: The trees were somewhat damaged by nothing except last year's storm.)
Det eneste trærne var litt skadet av, var fjorårets storm.

 5)
The trees were somewhat damaged by last year's only storm.
(Meaning: The trees were somewhat damaged by the one storm which occurred last
year.)
Trærne var litt skadet av fjorårets eneste storm.
