Thanks to some additional clues Marit has given me by MP, I've been able to fill in three gaps more.
2- The opposite of "interested". disinterested
(At first I thought about this solution but it sounded too easy!
)6- When you destroy disease-causing germs in, you disinfect.
7- A verb meaning to hold back and delay. detain
As for the 3rd & the 9th ones, I haven't got any clue. I have a lot of French words in mind, but I can't find a matching English word beginning by D, even by the mean of a bilingual dictionary.
Thank you Marit for your help!
See you.
