The red text is equivalent to "difficulty" - the grammatical term escapes me for the moment. You won't have any difficulty finding your way around the city. You won't have any difficulties finding your way around the city. The first, with singular difficulty, seems a lot more natural to me.
Hi, I would like to know which of these options is correct or whether they are both correct: "She has difficulty of making new friends." "She has difficulty to make new friends." Thanks!
I had difficulty at first but then I told it. It is difficult to imagine the context in which that would be said: What is "it"? You must have "something" with which to have difficulty, although that can be implied from earlier context.
Please tell me when to use "difficulty" and when to use "difficulties". I'm confused. 1."Most children learn to speak without any difficulty." 2."Most children learn to speak without any difficulties." Thanks.

Very often 'got' suggest there was some difficulty or somehow the speaker managed to achieve something difficult or succeeded in doing something. If all you mean is the preposition 'past' as in 'walked past' you should avoid using 'got' + 'past'. Sometimes the past participle is used with 'got' as in "I got passed in maths!".
