Dažna klaida:
Learners sometimes use "big" instead of "magnificent" when they mean impressive and beautiful. "Big" only shows size, while "magnificent" adds the idea of beauty and causing admiration. Another mistake is using it with negative things (e.g., "a magnificent problem"), which sounds wrong; it is almost always positive.
