Entregar a:

Explanation:
Tambien "Entregar a:" Se usa cuando envias una carta al senor Ortiz pero va a la oficina de su contador o abogado, por ejemplo. Tambien si envias una carta al senor Ortiz, pero este esta viviendo en casa de su cunado que se apellida Martinez y cuyo apellido es el que aparece en el buzon. Asi el cartero no duda de que Ortiz vive alli y que puede "entregar" la carta.
