Are these sentences correct:
1-They took flowers for their mothers.
2-They each took flowers for their mothers.
3-Each of them took flowers for their mother.
I think "3" is clear. Each person gives flowers to his or her mother.
"2" could have the same meaning as "3", but it could also mean that the flowers were received by the mothers as a group.
"1" could have both meanings of "2" and it could also mean: The children as a group took flowers for their mothers as a group.
Is that correct?
Gratefully,
Navi.
