Stop overcomplicating particles

People always struggle with particles because they don't get the basic logic. It’s actually so simple. You just have to remember that "ni" is strictly for physical movement, while "de" is only for abstract concepts. If you're moving your body, use ni. If you're using your mind, use de. Literally every textbook gets this wrong but this is how real speakers actually think. Stop memorizing tables and just use this rule.
