Just a little question... why there are makushita matches after Juryo rikishis are introduced? I realized it only this basho, when I watch also the Juryo division because of Midorifuji.
I would like to ask for an advice, how to feel the progress or how to change my style of studying.
Soon I will go through the whole Genki I textbook+worbook, but I do not feel the excercies are enough to get the materials into my brain. After each lesson I understand it and can go through all excercises. But I do not feel I am able to decide when to use which grammar pattern to be able to speak. And in communication I feel I would use basic words and verbs only.
First half of Genki I did myself (2 months of everyday study, including separate kanji study), then I found a teacher (japanese native) for lessons in person (6 months, 2 lessons a month, everyther day stayding at home, including separate kanji study).
How can I get some overview about all the materials I learnt so far? Is there any source for addional exercises, which kind of interetwine gramatical patterns on this level?
Or would you suggest any other style of studying? Arigatoo Gozaimasu 🙏
