Hi guys,
I'd like to ask you one question- is the sentence below correct according to you? I've got a problem with the translation it from Polish into English. :)
Not a Shakespeare is he.
Thanks for help.
Is this sentence correct?

Re: Is this sentence correct?
Not really (highly archaic at best). Natural, contemporary usage would be 'He is no Shakespeare'.
