In french we have a word : "Uchronie" (utopia, chronos):

"What would have been able to arrive"


"To happen" ou "to occur" plutôt que "to arrive." Ce dernier est un faux ami.

Plus idiomatique: "What might have happened." ou "How things could have turned
out."

Merci pour cette rectification ...
Mon américain est très ... approximatif
