Confirmé el extravío y pedí la entrega a domicilio.

They are both in the preterite tense, first person singular: I confirmed / I requested.

• confirmé = I confirmed
• pedí = I asked for / requested

The preterite is used here because the sentence describes completed actions in the past. It sounds like a sequence of things the speaker did: first they confirmed the loss, then they requested home delivery.

The accent marks help show the correct stress and also distinguish these forms from other words.

• confirmé is stressed on the last syllable: con-fir-ME
• pedí is stressed on the last syllable: pe-DI

In many yo forms of the preterite, Spanish writes an accent mark:

• hablé
• compré
• pedí
• viví

Without the accent, the written form would either be incorrect or could suggest a different pronunciation.

Because Spanish often omits subject pronouns when the verb form already makes the subject clear.

• Confirmé already means I confirmed
• Pedí already means I requested

So yo is unnecessary unless the speaker wants emphasis or contrast:

• Yo confirmé el extravío, no otra persona.

In normal Spanish, leaving out yo sounds natural.

Extravío means loss, misplacement, or the fact that something has gone missing. In this sentence, it refers to the missing item or the official acknowledgement that it was lost.

It can sound a bit more formal or administrative than everyday alternatives. For example:

• la pérdida = the loss
• el extravío = the loss / misplacement, often in a more formal context

So this sentence sounds like something you might say in a customer-service, delivery, or paperwork situation.

Because Spanish usually uses an article with nouns where English often does not.

Here, extravío is a noun, so Spanish normally says:

• confirmar el extravío
• notificar el extravío
• declarar el extravío

Using el makes it sound like the loss / the missing-item situation being referred to in that context.

For the same general reason: Spanish often prefers an article before nouns.

• pedí la entrega a domicilio = I requested the home delivery / delivery to my home

Without la, it would sound less natural in standard Spanish. The article helps make entrega sound like a specific service or arrangement that was requested.

A domicilio means to your home / home delivery / at home, depending on context. It is a very common fixed expression in Spanish, especially for services:

• comida a domicilio = food delivery
• servicio a domicilio = home service
• entrega a domicilio = home delivery

You could sometimes say a casa, but a domicilio is more standard and more idiomatic in service-related contexts. It sounds more like the usual term a company or customer would use.

It comes from pedir, which is a stem-changing verb in some tenses, but here the important point is:

• In the preterite, pedir changes in the third person forms:
  • pidió
  • pidieron
• But in the yo form, it is simply:
  • pedí

So in this sentence, pedí is the correct preterite yo form.

Yes, you could, but the tone changes slightly.

• pedí = I asked for / requested
• solicité = I requested

Solicité sounds a bit more formal or bureaucratic.
Pedí is very common and natural in everyday Spanish.

So:

• Pedí la entrega a domicilio = natural, everyday
• Solicité la entrega a domicilio = more formal, possibly written or official

Y means and. It simply links two actions done by the same person:

• Confirmé el extravío
• pedí la entrega a domicilio

This creates a straightforward sequence: I confirmed the loss and requested home delivery.

Spanish uses y just like English uses and in this kind of sentence.

Yes, to some extent. Spanish word order is fairly flexible, although the original version is the most neutral and natural.

For example, you could also say:

• Pedí la entrega a domicilio y confirmé el extravío.

That changes the order of the actions, so it may suggest a different sequence or simply place focus differently.

The original sentence is clear and neutral:

• first action: confirmé el extravío
• second action: pedí la entrega a domicilio

It is pronounced roughly eks-tra-VEE-o, with the stress on ví.

The accent mark on í shows that í-o is pronounced as two separate vowel sounds, not merged into one syllable.

So:

• ex-tra-ví-o = 4 syllables

This is useful because English speakers might be tempted to compress it too much, but in Spanish the written accent helps show the correct pronunciation.

Yes, especially in a somewhat formal, customer-service, or administrative context. It sounds natural if someone is talking about a missing item, a package, a card, luggage, or something similar.

That said, in very casual everyday speech, some speakers might choose slightly different wording depending on the situation, such as:

• Confirmé que se había extraviado y pedí que me lo enviaran a casa.
• Notifiqué la pérdida y pedí entrega a domicilio.

But the original sentence is perfectly good Spanish and sounds especially suitable for formal or service-related communication.
