Thank you so much.
I hope this study method help me learn English.
However, I can't speak English. 😭

I too still cannot speak Japanese... yet! I panic when I have to do that in real time. But I feel that we are both getting better and better! It helps to practice reading them out loud, I try to do that even with comments I received and with the Japanese version of your writing. Maybe we can practice speaking together some day once we get a bit better. 😀

Let's keep trying until the day when we can practice speaking together someday. 💪

I'll be about 10 minutes late because I got caught in traffic. I'll be about 10 minutes late because I got caught in traffic.
I'll be about 10 minutes late because I got stuck in traffic. I'll be about 10 minutes late because I got stuck in traffic.
This sounds more natural, but both "caught" and "stuck" are fine.
I'm running about 10 minutes late due to traffic. I'm running about 10 minutes late due to traffic.
This sentence feels incomplete, because it doesn't include what happened due to the traffic. You could complete it by saying "due to a traffic jam" or "due to a sudden increase in traffic"

Perfect! Your level is so high😲

Thank you so much. 😀
In the first sentence, I didn't only know the phrase "traffic jam", but this time, the word was "渋滞に巻き込まれちゃって", so I wasn't sure how to say it in English.
I found alternative phrases like "got caught in traffic", "got stuck in traffic" and "running~late~" when I looked it up.
In the second sentence as well, I didn't only know the phrase "get enough sleep".
But I reallized that there are all sorts of phrase.

It's correct grammar, but I'm just suggesting an alternative word so you don't have the repetition of "days"!
