What is the function of “la” in the following please? “sur lequel je ferai la mise en place de mes plats”. Should I read this as (in a clunky way) “sur lequel je ferai/on which I will make” “la mise en place/the installation of” “de mes plats/of my plates”.

je vais mettre mes valises dans le compartiment. Et leurs valises à eux? Mettez les leurs dans le compartiment aussi.  

Why “à eux” at the end of second sentence please?

We were asked to translate from English "nights when you are not here."  The answer is "les soirs ou tu n'est pas la."  I don't have accents on my keyboard."  Why "la" and not "ici"?  Is "ici" a correct alternative?

Are these correct ??

a)they want to interview us all == ils veulent tous nous interviewer ???

b)they want to interview all of us == ils veulent nous interviewer tous

c)they all want to interview us == ils, tous nous veulent interviewer ?? **note only a comma distingushes  a from b**)

Why is "en" used in this clause in the 4th paragraph: 

I'm afraid they will be naughty.

(HINT: Conjugate "faire" in the Subjonctif présent)

The suggested correct answer is "fassent"; but why is it not "feront"? Surely, even in French, there is a difference in meaning between "I'm afraid they will be naughty" and "I'm afraid they are naughty"?

Complétez avec le contraire des prépositions : 

1. Le chien est sur la table.

2. L’ordinateur est à gauche du mur.

3. L’oiseau est au-dessous du bureau.

4. Le cinéma est devant l’hôtel.

5. L’école est loin de ma maison.

reverso gives an etre and an avoir form for grossir. As this is intransitive in the sense that he has put on weight himself, I assumed it was the etre form? You marked it wrong.
