Ошибка в каждом из этих предложений:

1. Had you dinner alone? -> Did you have dinner alone? 2. He waited untill it had grown dark. -> He waited until it grew dark. 3. Call me as soon you get it. -> Call me as soon as you get it. 4. Because the door is locked you cannot enter. -> Because the door is locked, you cannot enter. or You cannot enter because the door is locked.

Подробности:

1. Had you dinner alone? -> Did you have dinner alone? The verb "have" should be used instead of "had" to form a question in the past simple tense. Therefore, the correct sentence is "Did you have dinner alone?"

2. He waited untill it had grown dark. -> He waited until it grew dark. The verb "grow" should be in the base form without the auxiliary verb "had" to indicate a general action. Therefore, the correct sentence is "He waited until it grew dark."

3. Call me as soon you get it. -> Call me as soon as you get it. The word "as" should be followed by "soon as" to indicate that an action will occur immediately after another action. Therefore, the correct sentence is "Call me as soon as you get it."

4. Because the door is locked you cannot enter. -> Because the door is locked, you cannot enter. or You cannot enter because the door is locked. The two clauses in the sentence should be separated by a comma to indicate a cause-effect relationship. Therefore, the correct sentence is "Because the door is locked, you cannot enter." Additionally, the second sentence "They were marrying last year." should be changed to "They got married last year." to indicate a completed action in the past.

5. Whereever he goes he makes people happy. -> Wherever he goes, he makes people happy. The word "wherever" should be spelled with two "e" letters, and a comma should be used after "wherever" to separate the clauses. Therefore, the correct sentence is "Wherever he goes, he makes people happy."
