/poɾ faboɾ ɾeembie/from spelling rules
The English phrase "please resend" is translated into Spanish as por favor reenvíe.
This phrase is used as a polite request for someone to send a message or document again. It is based on the verb reenviar, which means "to resend".
What does it mean word for word?
The verb in the phrase contains the prefix re-, which functions exactly like the English prefix "re-" to indicate repetition.
Which one should you use?
While por favor reenvíe is a direct way to make the request, you may encounter other variations. For instance, ¿Podría reenviarlo, por favor? (Could you resend it, please?) is a common and slightly more polite way to phrase this in a professional email. If you are speaking to someone you know well, you might use the informal version Por favor, reenvíamelo.
How does it change in a sentence?
If you are asking more than one person to resend something, use the plural form por favor reenvíen.

Did you know?
- While por favor is standard, some regions use the phrase porfa in casual digital chats when asking someone to reenviar a file.
- If you are writing to a person of much higher authority, you might replace the verb with solicito el reenvío, which translates to 'I request the resending'.
- Spanish has a specific grammatical distinction between reenviar and remitir. While both can mean 'to send', reenviar is almost exclusively used for digital forwarding of an existing message.
