invite on
1- I invited them to dinner on Saturday.
2- I invited them on Saturday.
Aren't these sentences ambiguous?
May-be the invitation was made on Saturday and may-be the dinner was on Saturday.
What if I say:
3- On Saturday, I invired them to dinner.
or:
4-On Saturday, I invited them to dinner on Monday.

Re: invite on
Sentence 1 is ambiguous:
1- I invited them to dinner on Saturday.
==> I invited them on Saturday
==> I invited them to dinner on Saturday.
3- On Saturday, I invited them to dinner. (OK)
4- On Saturday, I invited them to dinner on Monday. (awkward)
TRY:
I invited them on Saturday to come to dinner on Monday.
:D
