غلطة شائعة:
Learners often say *"abreast about"* instead of *"abreast of"*. The correct preposition is always "of", as in "keep abreast of the news". Another mistake is using "abreast" before a noun, like *"an abreast person"*; it is normally used after a verb: "be abreast of", "keep abreast of", "stay abreast of".
