Häufiger Fehler:
Learners sometimes confuse "bypass" with "pass by". "Bypass" means to avoid something, often on purpose, usually to reach your goal more quickly (e.g., "bypass the rules"). "Pass by" usually means simply to go past something without the idea of avoiding a system or rule (e.g., "We passed by the museum").
