342. "So ... so that" instead of "so ... that"
(X) I'm so tired so that I can't go.
(O) I'm so tired that I can't go.
When so or such is completed by a clause of result, introduce the clause by "that" and not by so that.

343. "From now and on" used instead of "from now on"
(X) From now and on I'll study hard.
(O) From now on I'll study hard.
The phrase "from now and on" is incorrect. Say, "from now on".

344. "Although/Though ... yet" used instead of "although/though"
(X) Although it's raining, yet he'll go.
(O) Although it's raining, he'll go.
Although (though) is the conjunction introducing the subordinate clause, and
a second one (yet or still) isn't required.

345. "Go to home" used instead of "go home"
(X) When school is over I go to home.
(O) When school is over I go home.

346. Using "far" with a phrase of "definite distance"
(X) Mary lives two miles far from here.
(O) Mary lives two miles from here.
When we use a phrase of definite distance (like two miles) in a sentence,
don't use the word "far". We can say, Mary lives two miles away.
