Am I using "Onto" correctly?
- Macaws landed onto the shoulders of the cyclists
- A bunch of ants started climbing onto her face
- So I started to follow them, once they didn't know I was onto their plan.
The following sentence is not mine, I took it from the Cambridge Dictionary. Why didn't they use "into" instead of using "onto"? The furniture will be placed *inside* another house.
-I've managed to offload some of our old furniture onto a friend who's just bought a house.

Voglio più esempi di come utilizzare la preposizione "Su" con i pronomi . Nel mio libro, danno i seguenti :
-Contiamo su di te
- Sanno tutto su di noi
Se scrivo:
- Ho letto un libro su di lei
Sarebbe giusto?
Altra domanda è se posso usare "su" qui invece di "sotto"
- Lavorare sotto l'efetto dei farmaci ( lavorare su l'efetto dei farmaci)
