Common Mistakes

    Adjectives normally follow the noun; placing 'estándar' before 'envío' sounds unnatural here.

  • Hay envió estándar.

    The verb form is incorrect; the noun is 'envío' with an accent on í.

Cultural Tip

In many Spanish‑speaking online stores, 'envío estándar' is the default option and is often free, but some retailers charge a modest fee. Always check the fine print, as the term can vary between 'envío gratuito' (free shipping) and a basic paid service.
