✕Common Mistakes

  • Te mando los detalles por email, ¿vale?

    ‘Email’ is an anglicism; native speakers usually say ‘correo’ or ‘correo electrónico’.

  • Te mando los detalle por correo, ¿vale?

    The noun must agree in number and gender: ‘los detalles’, not ‘detalle’.

  • Te mando los detalles por teléfono, ¿vale?

    ‘Por teléfono’ changes the means of transmission; use it only if you really intend to call, not to email.

Cultural Tip

‘Vale’ is a staple of everyday speech in Spain, but in many Latin American countries speakers prefer ‘¿está bien?’ or ‘¿de acuerdo?’ to ask for confirmation. Adjust the closing word depending on the region of your interlocutor to sound more natural.
