Could someone enlighten me on the meaning of the word “пришлешь” (as in, “Пришлешь мне, когда будет готово?”)
When i first read it, i thought it was a form of “прийти,” but that translation doesn't quite make sense to me (unless прийти has a second meaning i'm not aware of. In which case i have a whole different set of questions >.<).
The most similar word i could find in my dictionary was “пришлый,” which makes much more sense than прийти but is different enough from пришлешь, i don't want to assume anything definite about it.

[upd] Thanks for the quick responses. ^.^ С->Ш always messes me up, i should be used to it by now…

It`s future tense for "send" - присылать. "Send it to me when it`s ready".

from прислать, not from присылать. Future from присылать is будешь присылать, as it is an imperfective verb.

"Пришлёшь" из singular future tense of "прислать" in second conjugation (="ты пришлёшь"). The whole sentence is "Will you send it to me when ready?"

It's "прислать" - the 1st person singular. The verb is perfective.

This is one of the exceptions in the 1st group of irregular verbs. The group contains 107 verbs. They all behave like "держать-держу-держишь...", "писать-пишу-пишешь", "ждать-жду-ждёшь", and "смеяться-смеюсь-смеёшься", "надеяться-надеюсь-надеешься" (with a vowel before "ять")

The other exceptions are "брать-беру-берёшь", "звать-зову-зовёшь", "лгать-лгу-лжёшь-лжёт-лжём-лжёте-лгут".
