How is かって being used here?


いつまでに送ればいい **かって** いうことですよ。

I can kind of get whats going on here. Forgive me if I'm mistaken but I think
it means "When are you expected to send this **thing** , is what I mean".

I don't understand how かって fits here; the dictionary came up with a lot of
words similar to かって, but none of them would make sense if I applied them
here.

I also went to Google Translate and it decided to group かっていう together and
translate it as "I mean" but isn't that implied with いう in the sentence?




`かって` in this sentence is not one unit, but two. `か` and `って`.

It might be easier to see like this:

> いつまでに送ればいいか、っていうことですよ。

  * **か** is the question particle.
  * **って** is an alternate form of と, a quotative particle.
