Is this sentence right?
Hi. Can anyone please help me? Is this sentence right? "A screen size over wide and over high." I think it sounds good. I like it when I here it but I'm not sure if the sentence is right .
Maybe it shall be like this? "A screen with the width of over and with the height of over ." But I think that sounds strange?
What do you think? Please help me.

Just a nit-picky thing: I'm always writing "over x feet" and my technical editor is always correcting it to read "more than x feet."
Or you could say: A screen that is larger than 5 feet by 3 feet.
