*i have terrible problems trying to understand sentences with "the most"

Answer

Consider these examples:

a) Most people / The majority of Spanish people like coffee.  [more general]

b) Most of the people / The majority of the people who live in Spain these days like coffee. [more particular, specific]

The issue is to understand when to use "the" as in (b) and when you need zero article as in (a). Can you see the difference from my examples?

By they way, you never say e.g. "most of people"

Answer

Diria simplemente:

Tengo problemas (terribles, graves, serios) tratando (cuando trato) de comprender frases con "the most"
