How do you say, "I told the waiter to bring me"?

I get the vocab, but not the grammar, I think you use a direct object, but I am not sure.

yes that is going to be tricky and needs the verb 'to bring' in the sunjunctive as a command - Tom has answered it well :) - Kiwi-Girl, Jun 5, 2011

Hey Tom, would you always need to use imperfect subjunctive? What about "Le dije al mesero que si me podía traer........."
Gracias.

no because it is indirect command. - BellaMargarita, Jun 5, 2011
""Le dije al mesero que si me podía traer........."= "I asked the waiter if he could bring me..." - 002067fe, Jun 5, 2011
But it does work, right Tom? - jeezzle, Jun 5, 2011
