To the man who only has a hammer, everything he encounters begins to look like a nail.

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!
1st version, though not very cleanly written, sounds more English. 2nd version, not so much.
My suggestion: Teach me one word, be my teacher. Teach me half a word, still be my teacher.
My suggestion: Please correct my grammar if you see fit. Much appreciated!
Agree, even the meaning is slightly different, it is more English liked.Originally Posted by HiHucCaoGio
