Dear sirs,

One of my customers ask me some questions about my products.
Now, How can I reply him ?
I will give the replies by next Monday or I will give replies by next Monday.
Of cause "I will give my replies by next Monday" seems best. But if I want to reply him like above, which one would be correct ?

Thanks advance
 
Dear teachers,

We're not all sirs.


One of my customers asked me some questions about my products.

Separate paragraphs with spaces (or indents).


Now, how can I reply to him[no space]?

I will give him the answers by next Monday or I will reply by next Monday.

[STRIKE]Of cause[/STRIKE] "I will give my replies by next Monday" seems best.

It's okay, but it's not very natural.


But if I want to reply to him with one of the examples above, which one would be correct[no space]?

Thanks. [STRIKE]in advance[/STRIKE]

Of course it's in advance. We can't answer before you ask the question.
You don't need to say next. You can say, "I'll reply by Monday."
 
Keep it simple and save words: I'll reply by [next] Monday. "Next" can make it ambiguous; if today is Sunday the first, it clearly means Monday the eighth. But if today's Friday the first, it could mean either Monday the fourth or Monday the 11th.
