by the way, this is what kills me in English language. How can you tell the verb from the noun? Or in some cases the adjective from the noun? Or how can you figure out the relationship between the verb and the attached passive noun without the grammatical case mechanism?

I understand the way it works in English intellectually but not too comfortable with all these ambiguities intuitively.
