工作学习 / English / 'I will speak with you tomorrow if not sooner.' What is the meaning of the whole sentence? especially the 'if not sooner'?'I will speak with you tomorrow if not sooner.' Preceding sentence is a part of an email a native person sent to me. I know the meaning of each world, but what is the meaning of the whole sentence? especially the 'if not sooner'?

好像理解为:最晚明天早上和你谈。

字面理解是:如果不能更早,我(最迟也)会在明天找你谈谈。意思是,我尽量早,最迟不过明天。
