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 :-)
Are there other similar idiomatic expressions or must one use the conventional gramatical constructs? For example:
If you were me... (Tú que yo?)
If I were him... (Yo que él?)
If he were you... (Él que tu?)
etc.
Why does it say "estoy maravillada" instead of "estoy maravillando"?
In the same way that galesa in the first example is equivalent to "Welsh," perhaps Esta torera es cordobesa is more equivalent to "This bullfighter (female) is Cordoban."
In the test question, How would you say "I have eaten only fruit for a week."?, the answer was Desde hace una semana solo como fruta.
But I chose Desde hace una semana solo he comido fruta. Why isn't that one correct, given the "have eaten?"

¡Que me dejes en paz!¡Dejarme en paz!
Hi, is “Dejarme en paz” also correct? Gracias, Shirley.?
I understood pretty much all the sounds in this piece with the exception of 'gallega'. To my (inadequate) hearing it sounded as if the narrator began the word with the letter 'r'.
What if you want to say I have to finish the speech for Thursday (instead of by Thursday) in the sense that it is Thursday's speech? Would it be, Tengo que terminar el discurso que es para el jueves? o el discurso de jueves..?
Gracias,
