What word of five letters has only one left when two letters are removed?

Illustration for riddle: What word of five letters has only one left when two letters are removed?

Common Wrong Answers

Three

Removing two letters from 'Three' does not leave a word related to the concept of 'one'; it results in 'ree' or 'the', neither of which means 'one'.

Money

When you remove two letters from 'Money', you might get 'one' as a result if you remove 'M' and 'y', but this is a stretch and does not follow the riddle's structure.

Table

Removing two letters from 'Table' could lead to 'Able' or 'Tale', but neither of these words has any connection to the concept of 'one'.
