gente que habla y las cosas usted sabe Spanish II Per1. Reyburn

Vocabulario Conocer = to know (a person) – Conocí a tu sobrina. I met your niece.

Conocer Conocer is a Spanish verb meaning to know or understand. Like many other common verbs, the use of conocer can be expanded through the use of prefixes and other variations that provide for noun and adjective forms as well. Conocer can also be used to mean "to meet." Although its use isn't very common, conocerse, the reflexive form of conocer can be used indicate total knowledge. Example: El edificio me lo conozco de cabo a rabo. I know the building from top to bottom. Conocí a tu sobrina. I met your niece. Conocer is conjugated irregularly. When the stem is followed by an -o or -a, the -c- of the stem chanes to -zc-. These changes affect the first-person singular indicative (conozco, I know), the present subjunctive (conozca, conozcas, etc.) and imperative forms based on the subjunctive.
