1. Yes, 는 makes an adjective. 게 is short for 것이. 것 means 'thing', 일찍 오는 것 = coming early(verbal noun) 2. Usually we don't use -게 만들다 about someone unless we're upset. For example, when you're mad at your friend, you could say "날 미치게 만들지 마! Don't make me crazy!" And we use -게 해주다 more often - Budi씨는 나를 행복하게 해줘요. In this case, -게 makes an adverb. 3. Yes, as Pascal said. In 그 학생이 열심히 공부하기 시작했어요, 공부하기 is a noun.
