What other meanings enseno/a have besides "teach"?

Question

In my Spanish textbook there is a phrase "Me ensena la tarjeta de embarque, por favor?" (sorry I can't do the symbols on my laptop), and I was wondering what other meanings enseno/a have besides "teach"? The situation was a woman approaching a security officer at an airport and he was asking her for her boarding pass. Did he mean that he wanted to check her boarding pass?

Fine to ask.It takes a while to "see" the site. Welcome to the forum. - nizhoni1, Jun 2, 2010

Answer 1

Check out the dictionary "enseñar". There are a few shades of meaning there besides to teach. One of the meanings is "to show" If you look at the bottom of the "answer this question" box you will see the letters with tildes you can use.

Answer 2

http://www.spanishdict.com/translate/ensenar The definition says that it can also mean "to show" and there are examples. This dictionary is very useful.

I am sorry for asking, I should have looked up eñsenar, but I just looked up eñsena and it just said "teach" beside it, or at least that's all I saw. I will look better next time. Thanks. - jenniferrambles, Jun 2, 2010
