Hi friends,
When I ask in English:
"Who did Mary see walking towards the railway station?"
Is this phrase ambiguous?
Does it say that "Mary was walking towards the railway station when she saw someone (and I want to know who)", or does it mean "Mary saw someone who was walking towards the railway station (and I want to know who)", or both meanings would be possible?
