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.
