What does Завтра mean, and can it appear elsewhere in the sentence?
Завтра means “tomorrow.” In Russian, adverbs of time like завтра are fairly flexible. You can place it at the beginning (“Завтра я отправлю посылку домой”), in the middle (“Я завтра отправлю посылку домой”) or even at the end (“Я отправлю посылку домой завтра”) without changing the basic meaning.
How is the verb отправлю formed, and what tense is it?
Отправлю is the first‐person singular future tense form of the perfective verb отправить (“to send off”). Because отправить is perfective, its future is expressed directly (no auxiliary needed). Conjugation: я отправлю, ты отправишь, он/она отправит, мы отправим, вы отправите, они отправят.
Why is посылку in the accusative case?
Посылку is the direct object of the verb отправлю (“I will send what?”). In Russian, direct objects of a transitive verb take the accusative case. Since посылка is feminine (ending in -a), its accusative singular form is посылку.
