I learned both English and Japanese as third/fourth languages and English grammar does _not_ make sense compared to Asian languages that has comparatively very logical forms, usually with minimal modifiers that doesn't change the entire sentence structure.

I frankly gave up with English grammar and just did whatever feels right.

This is the correct approach.

That's how native-speaker kids learn grammar. First learn to speak the language. Then many years later, learn how to say _why_ what you're doing is the right way.

I think that's what most people do, including native speakers.

Besides, there ain't no One True Correct™ English grammar in the first place. This is both what makes it a fun language but also vexing.

The best feature of English is that you can be pretty trash at it and make yourself understood. I've had great friends with terrible English.
