Please help me follow this explanation.

"We use the preposition "de" after the adjective..." by adjective do you mean facil/dificil?

when the subject is "the thing" (el armario) - Can you expand please as to what "the subject being the thing" means? What thing? What does thing refer to here?

"...not when the subject is "doing something" (montar el armario)."  Isn't the subject always doing something? I don't understand this distinction.

All the examples are great and I can sense the pattern but I'd like something more concrete to be able to lock-in to the rule please :-)

Cuales son los monumentos famosos es Paraguay y donde estan?

I'm new. I'm a beginner and wish to learn Castilian Spanish (including the pronunciation). I just took the first lesson (above). It has "confirm" buttons after all the lines, but they all lead to an error message. And I took the "test" but it was only two questions. What is going on? Seriously, a test with only two questions? And what are the non-functional "confirm" buttons even for? Oh, and the pronunciation does NOT use Castilian Spanish in the examples where I paid attention for that.

Verb translation. According to my Spanish dictionary, the verb "colgar" means to hang whereas "upload" is cargar. I used the latter verb, because the sentence is "... I will upload a photo on my social networks."  Why was my response marked incorrect?

When should you use reflexive verbs?

I am confused about the translation for a section of this exercise. That section is:  "I like King Baltazar". For this, I wrote "A mí me gusta al Rey Baltasar", but the corrected answer/translation was presented as "A mí me gusta el rey Baltasar". I thought the preposition "a" needed to be inserted after use of gusta if the reference was to a person (in this case "rey Baltasar" --- lower case in "rey" notwithstanding). Apparently, I am wrong. Could you please explain why "el" and not "al" was correct?

Hola, 

si no me equivoco debería escribir "suspense" en lugar de "supense" tal y como está escrito en el texto.

Gracias,

Does “¿Dónde estarán?” mean both “where will they be?” and “where might they be?” ?

I would think there would be different ways to express the two different meanings in Spanish.

All the examples are in present tense. 

How do we know if something is countable.    I don't think we can count stars.

And we can count money.      trees... I can count in my yard but not in forest.
