Why it's built this way

The notes match the numbers above.

  1. 1
    Quizás + subjunctive (haya llegado) makes the guess more doubtful; with the indicative (no le llegó) it sounds more likely. Present perfect subjunctive →
  2. 2
    se lo reenvío: le + lo becomes se lo. The present announces an on-the-spot decision (= I'll resend it). Double object pronouns (se lo) and clitic placement →

Variations
