Definition
送 (sòng) has three common uses: to give a present (often with a double object, like 送我一本书), to see someone off (送朋友), and to deliver something (送信). 交 (jiāo) is for handing in or paying, not for gifts or seeing off; 陪 (péi) is for accompanying someone socially, not for seeing them off at a station.
