"Be way off beam" hoặc "off the beam" có từ "beam" là dạng tín hiệu radio cho máy bay, giúp máy bay hạ cánh đúng hướng. Cụm từ "way off beam" có nghĩa là sai, không chính xác.

Ví dụ
'Harass (quấy rối) you? Stalk (theo dõi) you?' Reuben shook his head. 'You're way off beam, Billie. Way off. I love Miranda. Very much.'

The newspapers are full of it and, unless they're way off beam, you're aiming to arrest (bắt giữ) Jinx or her father because of the way Russell died.

You're way off beam on this one. Now back off before I do something I'll regret. You've got to give me some space, for Christ's sake. I need to think.

That's why,' he looked full into Slider's eyes, his own now a little too shiny, like those of a stuffed animal (thú nhồi bông), 'that's why you're way off beam if you think Josh had anything to do with her death. If it was me you suspected (nghi ngờ), there'd be more sense in it.
