In the sentence "il suffit d’observer ce que font les autres et les imiter," why have the verb (font) and the subject (les autres) swapped places? Shouldn't it be "il suffit d’observer ce que les autres font et les imiter"?

The sentence is taken from this text: "https://www.lawlessfrench.com/listening/bise-a-la-francaise/"

Thank you in advance. 

Wish could explain more how en dans du etc in the example is right for you.. some are obvious.. what if you do not know what is a region city province  etc etc.. do not specifically show in beginner questions why exactly your example follows the rule.  it is rudimentary boring for you.. else its back to having to memorize what is correct what is not. especially in the beginner examples. so frustrating. 

Do the singular names that refer to groups take the same conjugation like (il/elle) or like (ils/elles) 

Ex: is it la famille est or la famille sont ?

Why is this not in the passe compose?  tout le monde a eu son ....

Hello: 

Is "nous allions demeurer" a correct alternative to "nous allions séjourner?"  Thank you! 

Do you use c'est if a partitive article follows as well? 

How does one conjugate a verb when this occurs? Do you conjugate the verb with its form with the subject or of the object?

I noticed that an example given above " Elles ne l'ont fait expres" means They didnt do it on purpose. Im wondering why it isnt Elles n'en ont pas fait expres. Doesn't en replace phrases after de? 

Why not "etait ajoutee"
