What is the latest grammar point / fact you have learned?

Since there is a similar thread for vocabulary, I wanted to open one for interesting grammar points themselves.
Do you have grammar points you need help with? Do you have any interesting phrases to share? What part of the Japanese grammar do you find most interesting?

As for me, I am currently struggling to understand the use of ใ‚ใจใง in a sentence because I keep mixing up the sentence order :frowning:

Starting some basic keigo and I really think it should be taught sooner in Japanese classes.
For example
ใ“ใกใ‚‰ใซใŠใ‹ใ‘ใซใชใฃใฆใ€ใŠๆŒใกใใ ใ•ใ„ใ€‚
I learned ใ‹ใ‹ใ‚‹ means ใ™ใ‚ใ‚‹

Sounds like you might mean ่ฆ‹ใˆใ‚‹ instead.

่ฆ‹ใพใ›ใ‚“ just means doesnโ€™t see.
