Hello
I have a question about the interpretation of the sentence below.
"He told me to leave at 6:00 PM Tuesday"
How do you take this sentence? Which one is it saying, (1) or (2)?
(1) He told me at 6:00 PM Tuesday that he would leave.
(2) He told me that he would leave at 6:00 PM Tuesday.
If both of the interpretations are possible, which interpretation is more normal?
Thank you in advance.
