More than...

Hi teachers,

He's more than a friend than a teacher.




Is he actually a teacher?

"He may officially [or sometimes unofficially, but this would be unusual] be my teacher, but our relationship is closer to that of friends than that of student and teacher". Yes, he's actually a teacher, but as I mentioned above, he need not formally be a teacher.

fivejedjon,

Is it correct to say "He's more like a friend than a teacher"?
