difference in meaning
I am trying to learn grammar
I try learning grammar
I try to learn grammar
As I understand, "I am trying to learn grammar" - I am doing it now. "I try learning grammar" - i do it repeatedly (e.g. every hour, every day). "I try to learn grammar" - in general (i decided to learn grammar and started doing it).
Is my understanding of these sentences right?

The first and third are correct, however the second one isn't exactly right. When saying "I try learning grammar" you have to include an adjective or another part of speech, otherwise you would just say "I try to learn grammar." In other words the first and third sentences can be used just like how you wrote them, but the second sentence needs additional information. For example: "I try learning grammar hourly" or "I repeatedly try learning grammar." I don't know if you knew this information already but if you didn't I hope it helped :)
