Errore comune:
Learners sometimes say "very hilarious," but "hilarious" already means "extremely funny," so using another strong intensifier like "very" or "extremely" is usually unnecessary or sounds awkward. It is also sometimes confused with "happy," but "hilarious" describes something that causes laughter, not a general feeling of happiness.
