    2. I know someone who can do this.
    3. I don't know which one to buy.
    4. I don't know why you did this.
    5. I know where to go.

    Cheers

    2. I know someone who can do this. --- Tôi không biết ai có thể làm đuợc việc này

    3. I don't know which one to buy.---Tôi không biết nên mua cái nào.
    4. I don't know why you did this. ---Tôi không biết tại sao bạn lại làm đỉêu này.

    I assume that you are asking for translation
    Nhất tự vi sư , bán tự vi sư

    1st Version:
    Anyone who teaches me one word - even half a word - is still my teacher.
    2nd Version:
    Even he who teaches me the smallest bit can still be called my teacher

    Please correct my grammar as you see fit. Much appreciated!

    YEA! Good call, Mr. EnglishL! I translated it wrong! It should not be "khong" in the sentence.

    which = nào
    ex:
    - which animal? = con thú nào?
    - which one? = cái nào?
