Frequently Asked Questions
Why does 'envía' have an accent mark?
The accent mark is there to show you where to put the stress when you say the word. Without the accent, the natural Spanish stress would fall on the 'e' (EN-via). The accent forces the stress onto the 'i' (en-VEE-a), which is the correct pronunciation for this specific verb conjugation.
Is 'envía' the same as 'manda'?
Yes, they are synonyms and often interchangeable. 'Mandar' is sometimes used more broadly, meaning 'to order' or 'to command,' but when talking about mail or messages, they both mean 'to send' and are commonly used.
