He appeases his gril friend's horrible angry with a range of sweet words.
Do you think you are already a master of it? What you learned is just a top of the iceberg!

Use the noun form.
Do you think you are already a master of it?
Nope. I'm a Jack-of-all-trades and master of none!
What you learned is just a tip of the iceberg!
I use red for corrections. The idiom uses "tip" and not "top."
Jim is my intimate, He was providing me a lot of helps these years.
In this context, "intimate" implies a sexual relationship. But I friend can be a close friend without having sexual overtones. If a man and woman are "intimate" they are probably naked.

For the sentence which I used "Intimate", I just want to express Jim is a very good/extremly close friend. I'm not impling they have sexual relationship. As I see one of its Chinese explantion is "知己，至交" in my dictionary. Seems I need to use it very carefully or I may humiliate someone else in one day...
And I'm truely like your journals, some of them made my day! Haha.
