Enviar Conjugation | How to Conjugate Enviar in Spanish

Enviar means “to send.” You will learn its stress-changing present forms such as envío and envíe, regular past and future families, gerund enviando, participle enviado, and common object patterns.

Enviar conjugation at a glance

Verb type: Irregular. Linguistically, enviar keeps regular -AR endings but shifts written stress in present-family forms: envío — “I send,” envías — “you send,” and envíe — “that I send.” Forms such as enviamos — “we send” — and enviéis — “that you plural send” — keep the unstressed sequence.

Enviar gerund, past participle, and infinitive

The infinitive names the verb, the gerund is its non-finite -ing form, and the past participle combines with haber — “to have” as an auxiliary — in compound forms. The participle enviado remains invariant in those compounds.

Enviar meaning and essential uses

Enviar — “to send” — is transitive. The direct object is the person or thing sent: Envío un mensaje. — “I send a message.”

A destination or recipient is commonly expressed with a — “to”: Enviamos el paquete a Madrid. — “We send the package to Madrid.” Le envío el archivo a Marta. — “I send the file to Marta.”

Enviar irregular conjugation patterns

The main irregularity is stress and written accentuation. Present indicative has envío, envías, envía, envían — “I send, you send, he/she sends, they send” — but enviamos — “we send” — and enviáis — “you plural send.”

The present subjunctive similarly has envíe, envíes, envíen — “that I/you/they send” — but enviemos — “that we send” — and enviéis — “that you plural send.” The gerund enviando — “sending” — and participle enviado — “sent” — are regular.
