Send refers to the act of moving card from field, hand, Main or Extra Deck to the Graveyard.
Cards always send to the Graveyard as a result of Synchro Summoning, Tributing, destroying, discarding and detaching. They can also be send to the Graveyard as a cost or by an effect (that uses this term).
However, notice that 'sent' cards from your hand are not automatically classed as 'discarded'. The same goes in 'Tribute', 'destroy' and 'detach'.
Proper knowledge of the difference between 'Sent', 'Tribute', 'Destroyed', 'Discarded' and 'Detach' could mean the difference between a win and a loss in playing the game. For example, "The Fabled Cerburrel" activate its effect when 'discarded' to the Graveyard by "Card Destruction" but not when 'send' to the Graveyard by "Hand Destruction".
Another example is the effect of "Dark End Dragon". Because its effect 'sends' monster to the Graveyard, it cannot be chained to by the effects of "Stardust Dragon", "My Body as a Shield", or "Destruction Jammer" because it does not 'destroy' the monster.
Yet another example is why the effects of "Sangan" and "Dandylion" activate when they are Tributed. Their card texts state 'When this card is sent from the field to the Graveyard...', therefore they do not have to be 'destroyed' unlike cards such as "Giant Rat" and "Shining Angel".
