'Entra' can also be a command
When you're telling a friend ('tú') to do something, you also use 'entra'. For example, '¡Entra, por favor!' means 'Come in, please!'. You can tell it's a command because there's usually no person mentioned before it.
Mixing up 'entra' and 'entro'
Mistake: “Using 'entra' when you're talking about yourself. For instance, saying 'Yo entra a la tienda.'”
