Okay...
So much ambiguity here. I don't know the real difference between "sagatte" and "orite", or why you would use "orite" instead of "dete" for some things, (maybe for climbing vs exiting?) or why you would use "deta" instead of "dete".... (horseVShuman?) or when exactly tokoro should be used. I'm very confused.... sigh.
