" No you cannot say , 'le jour suivant le mariage' you could say, ' le jour après le mariage' but ' le lendemain du mariage' is even better... "

I have 2 questions about this answer:

Q1) Compare the example "Il a été relâché le jour suivant son arrestation." with "Il s'est réveillé le jour suivant le mariage". Do these both not follow the same pattern of the day following+[something]. What is it about the latter that is wrong?

Q2) Cécile has indicated we could say le jour après le mariage but in the lesson we can read "You cannot say le jour après in French." So which is it?

I've encountered this quiz: translate this sentence: "Marie worked for ten hours yesterday". The answer excludes this option: Marie a travaillé en dix heures hier.

Why can't I use the word "en"? It's mentioned here: En vs Dans with time (French Prepositions of Time)

"En expresses the length of time something takes to be done."

when we say the more X, the more Y...we dont need le or la? to indicate "the" like "the more i run, the more i am happy" 

À propos de la dernière phrase, est-ce qu'il serait possible d'employer "leur entreprise" au lieu de "leur commerce"?

Two phrases: 

Je pense au match de football de la semaine prochaine. 

Je pense à mon mariage le mois prochain. 

Question: why preposition "de" is in front of "la semaine", but it is not in front of "le mois"?

Thank you 

Best regards
