Hello teachers.

1. Do not give any personal information to anyone you don't know trust.

2. Do not give any personal information to anyone you don't know trust.

Which one is correct?

Thanks.
Both are correct. It depends what you mean.

1. You may give personal information to people
(a) who you already know, but only if you also already trust them.
(b) who you already trust, but only if you also already know them.

2. You may give personal information to people
(a) you know but do not trust.
(b) you trust but do not know.

Obviously 1. is better advice. 👁 Wink ;)
Thank you.

I got it.
Hi,

Which one is better, and or in in the following context?

Every year, he can go to visit one of those good medical schools in the US and/in other countries.

Context: Amy's husband is a doctor who works in a very good local hospital and they offer many bonuses and this visiting of medical schools of other countries is one of them.
"Good medical schools in the US in other countries" makes no sense, because the US isn't in any other country.
You can use either 'and' or 'or' here, and whichever one you choose, you can add 'in' after it, but you can't use 'in' 'and' or 'or'.
