Note these:
She was rich beyond her wildest dream (not, widest dream).
She is taller than I (not, more taller than I). The use of double comparison must be avoided.
He is my brother (not, blood brother). Brothers are necessarily related by blood.
You had better do what I said (not, You better do what I said).
