🎉 正解 / Correct!
解説 (JP): 何か良いことが起こった原因や理由を示す際に使います。その結果に感謝する気持ちが含まれます。\n\nCommon Mistakes:\n❌ せいで: Oh no! '〜せいで' is used to BLAME someone for a terrible result. A decrease in mistakes is a wonderfully positive outcome! If you say 'せいで', it sounds like you are being sarcastic and actually hate the senior's advice! haha Always use '〜おかげで' for gratitude.\n❌ からには: This expresses determination ('Since the senior taught me, I will...'). 'I will decrease my mistakes' is good, but 'mistakes decreased' is a state that already happened.\n❌ あまりに: '〜あまりに' means 'so much that...'. 'Because the senior taught me SO much, my mistakes decreased' kind of makes sense in English, but grammatically in Japanese it's incomplete without a feeling or emotion attached!
