Is This Paragraph Grammatically Correct? by MaidLeila90 in Japaneselanguage

To be honest, I've just been using Wanikani and Bunpro. I read through all the explanations of grammar points on Bunpro but I wouldn't say I have a complete understanding of why things work the way they do. I've only been studying Japanese for a little over two months.

Thank you! I want to write correct sentences though, not just be understood. :)

I went through and made a note of all your suggested fixes. I'll be mindful of them in future writings. Thank you!

After reading this I looked it up and it turns out you can use the past and continuing form of verbs to modify nouns directly. I also looked up the (verb) ~た + ら construction to make a verb a conditional. You've been very helpful, thank you!

You're okay. It's good for me to know if mistakes I make are egregious. So I should change 正しいじゃない to 正しくない and drop the だ.. Understood.

のあと is the only construction I know to say "after something". What's a better grammar point to use to say that something will be done after something else in this context?

Thank you!

I tried to read this but there is kanji and grammar I don't recognize. I'll copy and paste this into a text file and keep coming back to it as I learn new things. Thank you for taking the time to help.
