- Nota d'uso
Il verbo “rispedire” si può tradurre con to send back e con to return. Il secondo, però, è generalmente usato in contesti formali o ufficiali, come ad esempio sulle buste quando l'indirizzo risulta errato: Return to sender, rispedire al mittente. Quando si tratta di rimandare indietro articoli difettosi o non richiesti, si usa molto più frequentemente to send back: I sent back the faulty toy, ho rispedito indietro il giocattolo difettoso.
