Repeating prepositions after not
This answer seems to contradict itself. It says you "may or may not use the preposition" but it also says "you must use the on". Actually, I think the "on" is optional.

Why can "opposed to" be used directly after a conjunction or a preposition?
Here, I think "opposed" is passive voice, not past tense.

We can say really big, and it makes the thing we're talking about bigger than the usual big. Is there a way of saying not so big?
"kind of" (or "kinda") is informal, but it's the most natural option for my area (northeast US).

The "such" in "such type of plants" and "such a person"?
I would interpret "such type of plants" to mean "such plants (of that type)", NOT "such a type of plants".

Verbs corresponding to 'showed' for other senses
Your first and third example sentences sound extremely unusual to me. I find it difficult to imagine someone saying those sentences seriously.
