This sentence in English means something along the lines of 'you may receive the article any time, but you can expect it by 10 days from now'. In other words, don't start ringing us to ask about it until after at least 10 days.

I am not convinced that either 'en' or 'dans' as described in the lessons are better fits. It is not a statement that delivery/receipt 'takes 10 days' to happen, or that delivery/receipt will occur on the 10th day.

By + [point in time] = d'ici [moment] in French

En vs Dans with time (French Prepositions of Time)

It should be clear that more than one answer is expected per question, if applicable.

Can 'que' replace 'à qui'? Why can't I say this? "La fille que je pense est belle."

Location of "tout" in "Vous avez tout détruit"

Hi, I'm having trouble understanding the way "tout" acts in sentences when being used as a pronoun. In another lesson it says that "tout" can be used as a pronoun, however in passé composé the structure is usually: "subject + object pronoun + auxillary verb + past participle", for example "Je l'ai mangé".

My understanding is that the correct sentence would be "J'ai tout mangé", and not "Je tout ai mangé". Could someone please help me understand, is there a rule for as to why tout behaves differently than others?
