I think I remember some Cantonese speakers still use 先生 as "teacher"...

I distinctively remember some ABCs (American-Born Chinese) using that term when the teacher told them to translate for me... being born in the Mainland, I never heard it used that way, I just assumed it is supposed to mean teacher by context clues...
