What are your tips on acquiring new grammar?

I’ve recently found that while I know certain grammar I do not have acquired them. Meaning that I understand how it works and what it says but when talking or writing I’ll simply resort to older grammar.

For example のが or のは. I do understand what they mean and when coming across them I would recognize it. But when speaking I would most likely resort to こと.

Or かどうか. I learned it recently but when speaking I mostly resort to other options. So instead of saying そのはんしはほんとうかどうか、わかりません。I would say この話は本当がわかりません。which is technically incorrect but would mostly bring my point across anyway.

I live in japan so immersion is not a problem it’s just that I keep forgetting grammar exists and using older (unfitting) grammar. Are there any tips on speeding up the acquisition process?

  1. In my opinion: by just being exposed to it over and over again. Keep saying it until you can say it by second nature and keep watching or having conversations to be exposed to it more. You’ll get there soon enough, especially living in Japan. Good luck!
