ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners sometimes use "grandeur" for very small or everyday things (e.g., "the grandeur of my phone"). It is usually used for things that are large, impressive, or important, such as buildings, mountains, or big ceremonies. Another mistake is using it like an adjective (*"a grandeur house"*); the correct form is "a grand house" or "a house with grandeur".
