The expression "to be hard of the leaf" does not present any particular difficulties in terms of vocabulary.
"Hard", the word "hard" can have several meanings. It can mean something solid, resistant, it can mean something difficult. It's hard to run when it's very hot, that is to say it's difficult. The office is hard. When I put my hand, you feel that it's hard, that it's resistant, it's solid. So, you see that it can have several meanings.
The word "leaf", it can also have several meanings, but often it is used to designate the thin and flat part of a plant. So, it is essentially trees that have leaves, it is something thin and flat. You can also have a sheet of paper, it is a piece of paper. Here, I have a leaf. You mean the paper that is fine and thin. It is a leaf.
