Half a loaf


Today’s Idiom: half a loaf is better than no bread.


Meaning: to have a little of something is better than not having it at all.
Wrong Usage: It is wrong to render this idiom as ‘half a loaf is better than none.’ or 'half bread is better than no bread at all' or 'half loaf is better than nothing'.
General Note: Idiomatic expression should be rendered the original way it was rendered. You don’t have the liberty to thwart the worlds arrangement.
