Use the first-order language with one constant , take with equality only, and let . Set
This complete type contains and is isolated by that formula. In any first-order structure, at most one element can satisfy . In every , its interpretation of realizes , by elementary equivalence. Hence no elementarily equivalent model has infinitely many realizations of . An algebraic type can have a fixed finite number of realizations in every model.
