Is this sentence gramatically correct? Is "O sii come tu sembra o sembra come tu sei!" gramatically correct? I mean " Either be as you seem or seem as you are!"

1. The first exhortation needs no initial "or", since *SII is an Imperative form and it's stronger without giving a choice in front of it, then the second part sounds as "---otherwise you have no other choice than ..." -- Sii come appari o appari come sei 2. If we want to use the double choice, then, the Present is better. But it's no more a strong exhortation, just "an advice from common sense" -- O sei come appari o appari come sei 3. There also could be variants as the exhortation can also use the Subjunctive. Or some "Should-clauses" -- Che tu sia come appari, o che tu appaia come sei -- Dovresti essere come appari o apparire come sei -- Sarebbe meglio o che tu sia come appari, o che tu appaia come sei

Ciao Omercan, io direi così: o sii come appari o appari come sei. Come vedi ho cambiato il verbo, mi è sembrato l'opzione migliore per tradurre la frase inglese. (nella tua frase c'è solo un piccolo errore di grammatica, ovvero il primo verbo dovrebbe essere sembri)

Hi lady Rosales. Thanks a lot but I mainly wonder whether the Italian sentence of it is correct.

Hello, Omercan. Yes, the English sentence is grammatically correct. However, a native English speaker would not state a sentence in this manner. But it is structurally, grammatically correct.
