Verb[て] - Grammar Discussion

Similarly, -てみる means “try” in the “try it and see” kind of sense. Do something and see how it goes. It doesn’t express a conscious effort to achieve something. For that, you could use the volitional + とする construction.

Thank you very very much for your reply.

If I have learned this issue incorrectly or incompletely, I would like you to correct me. I know that “てみる” is “used in situations where you are not sure whether you will be successful in doing an action.” am I wrong? and in the example I gave, I used “てみる” because I thought “let’s see if I can remember” the kanji I learned a few days ago (but I wasn’t sure about whether I could remember them correctly) and took action.

If I have chosen a wrong grammatical rule in this regard, I would like to learn the correct one from you.

Why do the reviews for this grammar point use fragment sentences?

For example, review sentences include:

• “To eat and then.”
• “To wash and then.”
• “To walk and then.”

As an English speaker, these sentences are confusing because they’re incomplete, and since these are the sentences I see in my reviews, I feel like I’m not really reviewing how this particle is used in real life.

Are these considered complete sentences in Japanese? Or is Bunpro showing us fragment sentences on purpose? If that is the case, why?
