No opening question mark is needed in English. How do I translate this? (use proper capitalization for the pronoun I) - francobollo, Dec 19, 2012

How much time until we arrive?

How much longer until we arrive?

or (rather colloquially, but very commonly said).

How long until we get there?

.

OK, and for the second one:

Is it a long time until we get there?

or.

Will it take long?
