Spanish Verb: dé
Author: Johns SmithSpanish Verb: dé
Pronunciation:deh
Translation:give
Function:verb
Most single-syllable Spanish words need no ‘acento’ [stress mark], but some do, and there are one or two very common, such as the pronoun ‘tú’ [you]. If you don´t use the ‘acento’, then you are talking about possessive ‘tu’ [yours]
Another interesting pair is ‘de’ [of] and ‘dé’ [give it], functioning as a preposition or verb, depending of whether the stress mark is used or not.
Example:si, sí
Translation:if, yes
