常見錯誤

❌My brother and I are lookalikes each other.
✅My brother and I are lookalikes.
💡'lookalikes' already means people who look alike; do not add 'each other'.
❌He is a lookalike of celebrity.
✅He is a celebrity lookalike.
💡The collocation is usually 'celebrity lookalike', not 'lookalike of a celebrity'.
