Grammar
Two different men
a. Every time, they sent two different men.
Does this mean
1. Every time they sent two men (obviously they were not the same man!)
or
2. Every time they sent two men they had never sent before.
I think (a) could have both meanings.
Many thanks.

Meaning #1 is ridiculous. #2 is fine.
