The Spanish word for “fetch it” is “tráelo” — A1 level. This is a very common word in everyday Spanish.

Verb + Object Combo
This word is actually two parts stuck together: 'trae' (the command for 'bring') and 'lo' (meaning 'it' or 'him'). In Spanish, when you tell someone to do something, the 'it' gets attached directly to the end of the action word.
The Accent Mark
We add an accent to the 'á' because adding 'lo' to the end of 'trae' would normally change where we naturally emphasize the word. The accent keeps the stress on the 'tra' part, where it belongs.
Missing the Accent
Mistake: “traelo”
Correction: tráelo. Because it's a three-syllable word where we stress the third-to-last syllable, a written accent is required by Spanish rules.
Using the wrong gender
Mistake: “tráelo (referring to 'la mesa')”
Correction: tráela. Use 'lo' only for masculine things (like 'el libro') or unknown objects. For feminine things, use 'la'.
