一日为师,终身为父
有这样的译法:
He who teaches me for one day is my father for life.
If you are my teacher for even one day,you will be my teacher (mentor) all my life.
He who teaches me may be considered myfather-figure for life.
这几种译法意思都是"老师即使对我只有一天的教诲,也会让我一生都受用不尽."外国人也有他们表达师生关系的谚语,如:
Teach others to fish and they will fishfor a lifetime. (授人以鱼,不如授人以渔)
Give a man fish, he will have a meal;teach him to fish, he will have food all his life.
