En Argentina son bastante intercambiables. Para mí era algo obvio y natural hasta que vi el video, pero noto que "saber" está relacionado con un verbo -saber hacer algo-, y "conocer" está relacionado a un sustantivo -conocer algo-.

Your videos are great. As a native speaker I enjoy them a lot! It’s also helpful for helping my daughter to think in Spanish as she’s starting to translate from English when talking to us (we’re from Venezuela bur she was born in the US where we live now). Also, I’ve always thought “Yo qué sé” ad “What I know? or “Why would I know?”

wow! must've taken a real long while to compile all these relevant clips. really appreciate it =)

Muchas gracias. Otra vez, un vídeo excelente. Cometí un error durante una tutoría ayer (soy estudiante de español intermedio en la Open University del Reino Unido). Dije a mi compañero “¿Conoces que hay una isla….?” En cuanto la había dicho me di cuenta que debería haber utilizado el verbo saber. Por lo que, he visto tu vídeo para revisar los conceptos y lo encontré muy útil. Te agradezco de nuevo. 🙏

Thank you so much for using the film clips. Massively helps with listening, recognition and identifying words/phrases in 'real' speaking situations. :)

Hello, I find your lessons very informative and most useful. Thank you for making my learning easier. Just have noticed that when presenting forms of different verbs the vosotros illustration-examples seem to be omitted .I wonder if the reason behind it is maybe that the plural verb form for you is not widely used or is it anything else. Kind regards, Barbara

i'm glad you asked for comments on what we didn't understand or I wouldn't have asked. at 11:22: "como cuando nos conocimos" you said that translates to "when we first met" but didn't explain how can that be when the word "primero" or similar isn't present

@spider2666

2 жыл бұрын

You don't need a word like 'primero' because 'nos conocimos' already means 'when we met (for the first time)', literally 'we became acquainted with each other'. You would use another verb, like encontrar, if you were talking about meeting for lunch or something (i.e not meeeting for the first time)

@@mojojojoe100 Yes, though I don't think it's that commonly used to mean 'meet up with'. Quedar is probably most commonly used for meeting up with people you already know. Pasar can be used if you call upon them, at their house, say. Reunir can also be used. It depends on other word choice and exact shade of meaning.

Here the woman is explaining to the guy, what he has to do or what is going to happen when he’s in the bar. That’s the second part of the sentence, that’s why that clip is a bad example that only confuses students. It’s not normal to start a sentence using”y”.

These are awesome videos-just binged a bunch and cleared up a lot! Here’s a question (11:55) Are you saying that asking if you’re familiar with a famous person and asking if you’ve met a famous person are said the same: Conoces a Javier? (I suppose in English it’s the same: do you know Javier? But you could then clarify to Do you know OF Javier vs Know him - how would you distinguish in Spanish?)

I wish you had covered how to distinguish "Do you know of Sebastian?" and "Have you met Sebastian?" when Sebastian is a famous person. I got into an argument with my Venezuelan boyfriend when I asked him if he was familiar with Sebastian Yatra, a Chilean songwriter featured in "Encanto." I just wanted to know if he had previous knowledge of Sebastian, so I used conocer. I think he replied, "Yes, I met him in Chile" or "Yes, I became familiar with him in Chile." He also used conocer, so it seemed ambiguous. So I tried to clarify what I wanted to know using encontrar, and he got really huffy, as if I were asking something inappropriately personal. "Why do you want to know?" I replied, "I'm just curious," and then I let it drop, because he seemed really angry.

Sólo un comentario..."yo que sé" es una respuesta grosera que expresa fastidio o enojo. Es el equivalente a contestarle al otro "¿y por qué debería saberlo?". La otra persona podría sentirse ofendida o subestimada. Dependiendo del contexto en el que se usa no es equivalente a simplemente decir "yo no sé".

Hola:) I'm wondering why in your videos, when you are conjugating verbs, the 2nd person plural (e.g. sabeis) gets skipped. It's not the first time in your lessons... Why?:)

The reason is because "sabéis" is conjugated with the "vosotros" form, and that form is only used in Spain, whilst he teaches the Spanish of Latin america.

Great video! One question: "¿Conoces a Javier Bardem?" means "Are you familiar with Javier Bardem?" But couldn't it also mean "Have you met Javier Bardem?" or "Do you know Javier Bardem (personally)?" If so, how do we know what the speaker is asking? [I realize that the answer is probably "by context," but I was wondering if there was something else that I might be missing.]

Hello ! You have good videos and you explain interesting details, both English and Spanish. Nevertheless, I consider that you use complicate examples in Spanish language. Additionally, I would like to mention that there are plenty of pronunciation and grammar mistakes on the Spanish media. Not always Spanish media is a "good" example of high quality of Spanish language. Knowledge about a language does not depend of a country, it depends of a person. Educated people about a language are always an small amount in comparison to a population. To shortly introduce myself, my name is Sergio, I studied laws in Venezuela. I am also a Spanish speaker with passion for languages. I offer you my opinion about Spanish if you like. Good luck with your videos !

@realfastspanish

¡Buena pregunta! Y, sí, tienes razón. We need to use "a" when a person that we know is the object of the sentence ("I know Carlos"). In this sentence, we need to say "Conozco a Carlos" and we can't use "saber" in this context. In fact, it is very rare to use a person as the object of a sentence with "saber" and for this reason, it is rare to use the personal "a" with saber.

Es posible usar "a" con saber en ejemplos cómo: -El no sabe a qué vino. -Yo no sé a quién preguntarle. -Está bien, sabemos a qué hora sale el vuelo. Aquí la persona o la cosa en cuestión no están definidos, pero es a ellos a quién se hace referencia.

Yo que sé sounds rude, believe me. Just say: La verdad que no sé.
