All of you saying the opposite of opposite is opposite are Olodo rabata. grin

How can the opposite of Stand be Stand.
The opposite of Stand is Sit
The opposite of white is black
The opposite of Sky is ground
The opposite of Good is bad

How then can the opposite of opposite be opposite. You all are F9 candidates. grin

*********

To solve this problem you need to find another word for opposite.

Another word for opposite is "in front" which is also Adjacent.

"Put that thing opposite the box" means put that thing in front of the box or Adjacent the box.

"Can you see that man standing opposite the railway?"
Means Can you see that man standing in front of the railway or Adjacent the railway?

Therefore if Opposite, In front and Adjacent mean the same thing, then the opposite of Adjacent or in front is Behind.

Like, "Dont put it infront of it. Put it behind it!

Therefore, if the opposite of behind is In front which also means Adjacent, and Adjacent, Infront and opposite mean the same thing, then the opposite of opposite is Behind.

Behind is the answer.

Put it opposite the TV
Put it Behind the TV

Some of you should stand opposite the Table
Some of you should stand Behind the Table.
