Mareh Mekomos:

Begin on 45a, tistayim, 10 lines from the top. Learn until the two dots 6 lines before the end of the narrow lines. See Rashi. After learning the whole gemara, see the second half of tosfos dh shani, that discusses if one can be motzi a person with a bracha if the one listening doesn’t understand loshon hakodesh. See Shulchan Aruch siman 193 sif 1 that paskens like tosfos that one who doesn’t understand is not yotzei. See Mishna Brurah sk 5 that discusses how is a person yotzei listening to kidush if he doesn’t understand. See Biur Halacha dh aino yotzei that discusses if there are three people in a mezumen if one can be yotzei without understanding and brings from the Birchas Avrohom. Why should a mezumen be different? On the gemara about the third person who left that he can answer from a distance, see Rambam hilchos brachos perek 5 halacha 13. According to the Rambam, can one be yotzei bentsching that way? See Meiri here dh shlosha sheachlu that brings a machlokes about this. See Shulchan Aruch siman 194 sif 2 with Mishna Brura sk 8 that brings Rambam.

Mareh Mekomos

Begin at the two dots on 45a, on the last narrow line. Learn the gemara and Rashi until 45b, tistayem derav, 10 lines from the top. What is the explanation in the opinion that says that two are not allowed to make a mezuman, what is wrong with making a mezuman that it is not permitted? See tosfos dh im that should answer this question. See Pnei Yehoshua on the tosfos (dh im, at the beginingg of the piece). On that tosfos, what is a nafka mina between the two answers of tosfos? What is the gemaras proof from ayn reshayin lechalek that two cannot be mezamen? See tosfos dh shlosha. On the gemara that discusses ladies making a mezuman, see tosfos dh shani that explains why we don’t have this minhag nowadays. See, however, Rabeinu Yonah (33a dh nasim and the beginning of dh nireh) that argues on tosfos and says that ladies are obligated to be mezamen. See Shulchan Aruch siman 199 sif 7 with Biur Hagra and Mishna Brura siman 199 sk 16 with Shar Hatzion sk 6 and Biur halacha dh nashim.
