Please help me with these sentence:,, The consignment should reach you by April 15''.
Can I say also: ,,The consignment should reach you by 15 April''?. Are both: ,, by April 15 and by 15 April'' correct forms? Is there any difference in using them? Thanks

Mr Kitosdad, so it should be:,,The consignment should reach you by April 15th'' or ,,The consignment should reach you by 15th April''?

Perfect Saneta. Use whichever you choose. Both mean the same.
