Hi Laura,

Is that "with you" really necessary?
I also wonder if "I told Mr. Abad that you should take me to your building (with you) on a Sunday." wouldn't sound better.

Yes, it's necessary, and no, that wouldn't sound better.

Explanation: If you leave off the "with you", the other person or people could be taking the speaker to the building and leaving him/her there. "With you", which is in the original, clarifies that building owner will be there for the transportation and the building viewing.

Where we place the prepositional phrase "on a Sunday" is unimportant. It could even be "I told Mr. Abad that on a Sunday you should take me with you to your building." But I think the way I wrote it is better than that, and the way you wrote it is equivalent.

Got it!

It's "Friday" (Sunday-Κυριακή) and instead of "building" (κτήριο/κτίριο) it's "land/estate/property".

OOPS!!! Thanks, User10. She's right, Lilian. I'd edit it myself, but the site doesn't let me do that anymore. It should read as follows:

Now that I've finished my examinations, I told Mr. Abad that you should take me with you on a Friday to your property.
