I will come to you on Monday.

 `008`mi klama do ti'u la padjed.
 On Tuesday I learn Chinese laguage.
 `009`ti'u la redjed. mi cilre fi lo jugbau
 You sleep on Wednesday.
 `010`do sipni ti'u la cidjed.
 Nikolay swims on Thursday.
 `011`la nikolys. limna ti'u la vodjed.
 Our group on Friday (will) drink beer.
 `012`le mi girzu ti'u la mudjed. cu pinxe lo birje
 On Saturday Jews rest from working.
 `013`ti'u la xadjed. loi xebro cu surla lo gunka

Those should be {ca} rather than {ti'u}. {ti'u} tags a clock time.

 In January, (people) celebrate the New Year.
 `027`la pamast. detri lenu salci le cnino nanca

I'd say {ca la pamast cu salci le cnino nanca}. I don't think January is a date.

 On 10th I begin working.
 `038`de'i li pano mi di'a gunka

"I resume working" might be more clear. {co'a} would be better for "begin".

 Columbus discovered a new country is dated when?
 `050`lenu la kolombus. facki lo cnino gugde cu se detri ma
 (In) year 1492.
 `051`la pavosorenanc.
 Mekhmet seized Constantinopolis is dated when?
 `052`la mexmet. dable'a la konstantiNUpolis. de'i ma
 In year 1453.
 `053`la pavomucinanc.
 The French revolution is dated when?
 `054`lenu fraso jecyga'ibai cu se detri ma
 In year 1789.
 `055`la pazebisonanc.
 Marx and Engels created the Communist Manifesto - dated when?
 `056`la marks. joi la .engels. finti le guntrusi'o selpeicku ku de'i ma
 In year 1848.
 `057`la pabivobinanc.
 Mukhammed came to Medina - dated when?
 `058`la muxamed. klama la medinas. de'i ma
 In year 622.
 `059`la xarerenanc.

{li pavosore} could be a date. But I don't think a year is a date. {de'i li xarere} or {ca la xarerenanc}.

 The mother of the infant travels.
 `081`le mamta pe le cifnu ku litru
 The mother of the infant traveller.
 `082`le mamta pe le cifnu litru

{pe} should be {be}.

 Zhang left the bar at 10 o'clock. Susan came to the bar at 11 o'clock.
 `085`la jan. cliva le barja ti'u la daucac. .i la suzyn. klama le

barja ti'u la feicac.

{ca la daucac}, {ca la feicac} or {ti'u li dau}, {ti'u li fei}.

 Near Paris, I work.
 `118`vi la paris. mi gunka
 A long way from my home, I work.
 `119`vu le mi zdani mi gunka
 A medium distance from where Kennedy was killed, I work.
 `120`va lenu la KEnedis. se catra kei mi gunka

I think vi/va/vu should be used to tag distances, not origins. For example:

ki la paris vi lo minli mi gunka
I work only a mile away from Paris.

ki le mi zdani vu lo ki'otre be li muno mi gunka
I work 50 kilometers (a long way) away from my home.

ki le nu la KEnedis se catra kei va lo so'o zdagri mi gunka
I work several blocks away from where Kennedy was killed.

 The rocket is flying upwards.
 `136`le jakne cu ga'u vofli

"Upwards" would be {ga'u mo'i}.

 Your house is where?
 `149`zdani do vi ma

I'd say {bu'u ma} or {tu'i ma}. The latter for permanent sites.

 A while after Zhang left, Susan is standing in the bar.
 `156`baza lenu la jan. cliva kei la suzyn. sanli ne'i vi le barja

What does {vi} do there?

 "Take that away. Give me a new wine bottle."
 `163`ko lebna ta .i ko dunda lo cnino vanju botpi mi

That's a "(new wine) bottle", not a "new (wine bottle)".

 Now Susan lives some way away from Zhang.
 `166`la suzyn. ca xabju va la jan.
 Every Thursday Susan goes to the bar, not far from the office.
 `168`ca ro la vodjed. la suzyn. klama le barja va le briju
 At the bar Susan meets Susan's long-time friends.
 `169`vi le barja la suzyn. penmi le la suzyn. ze'u pendo

See above re vi/va

 Susan sits away from the German beer.
 `171`la suzyn. zutse to'o le dotco birje

Facing away?
