@sawabe I believe this is because learners primarily study using books. Since it’s extremely hard to develop this sort of intuitive understanding through that type of lesson, I prefer improving it through engaging in real conversations. Experience is the best.
@sawabe It’s a common pitfall for most Japanese English learners to struggle with the concept and usage of demonstrative words, as those two don’t share the same underlying concepts. The same issue applies to articles, also distinguishing singular/plural forms I guess.
