Question

While a small dragon on her home world, Malystryx soon found that she dwarfed all Krynnish dragons. A monstrously large dragon, Malystryx was known to have been over four hundred feet in length, and had a gargantuan wingspan that measured over five hundred feet.

Philip · Accepted Answer

No comma after 'length' - you aren't repeating or changing subject after the conjunction.

'what better else can you get at such cheap rate?' -is the sentence grammatically correct? the sentence is supposed to convey the meaning : you can't expect anything better than this one which you already have at such cheap rate.

Indranil Dutta'what better else can you get at such cheap rate?'

There seems to be a conflict between "better" and "else."
"Else" means "in addition to."
When you get something "better," it usually replaces the other thing.

This is the best you can expect to get in such a cheap price range.
You won't find anything better at this price. ( . . . . at this cheap a price.)

(There are other ways to say it.)

Your post seems to have nothing to do with the thread in which you placed it. It is always better to start a new question with a new post than to "piggy-back".
