Do well on the test on Monday.

Do well on the test on Monday.

I feel like 'on Monday' can modify 'the test' as an adjective phrase and can also modify 'Do well' as an adverb phrase but whichever it is, they carry the same meaning.


I had a meeting with Mr.Han.

I feel like with 'Mr. Han' can modify 'a meeting' as an adjective phrase and also can modify 'had' as an adverb phrase but they carry the same meaning.

If you do not like the expression the same meaning, could you give me a proper one?

What do you native English speakers think? Thank you so much as usual in advance.

  • Or I might say that there is technically a difference in meaning, but it is hard to think of any context where this difference would be of any practical importance.
  • Possibly I might weakly favour the adverbial interpretation.
