    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!

    Default yet

    Xin được hỏi cách dùng adverb "yet"
    Em thấy thường dùng như "chưa"
    - Hey, have you already done your homework?
    - No, not yet pal, pls give me a break for now.

    Nhưng trong context mà yet nằm ở đầu câu thì dùng như thế nào?
    Yet another not needed reply... chẳng hạn

    Khi đó nó là liên từ chứ không phải là phó từ nữa: nhưng mà, song, ấy vậy mà, tuy thế, tuy nhiên

    vậy "yet" = "however"?

    đồng ý với ý kiến của Sang56 lun.
    nhưng theo mình câu1 không dùng comma.nếu có, thì đặt ở sau by the way.
    câu 4 có thêm should không bạn? ...that you should make some revions?

    Câu 1. Một trong những cách dùng dấu phẩy là để thêm một cụm từ (phrase)
    vào trong câu cho thêm nghĩa. Cụm từ giữa hai dấu phẩy có thể được đem ra mà không ảnh hưởng đến văn phạm hay nghĩa nói chung của câu.

    The story that I just told you, by the way, is true.
    The story that I just told you is true.

    Câu 4: I might suggest for example that you make some revisions.

    Thường thì nên có thêm chữ "should", nhưng đây là một cách nói gọi là "subjunctive" dùng để nhấn mạnh điều gì (như ra lệnh) hay diễn tả một ước mong, cái gì không nhất định, sự giả thử.

    Trong "Present subjunctive" thi động từ để nguyên thể, không chia thì hay ngôi thứ. Thí dụ:

    I demand that you be here on time.
    It is important that he take every precaution. (not he takes or he should take)

    Past Subjuctive: tất cả động từ dùng thì quá khứ (past tense) như bình thường trừ "to be" thành "were". Thí dụ:

    I wish I were there with you.
    He cried as if he were being killed
    Her parents wish she were studying hard.

    I wish I knew. (simple past)
    I wish I had done well in the exam. (past perfect)
