YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn English, the verb "to know" can mean a lot of things. It can be used to say that you know a fact, or that you know how to perform a skill, or even that you know a person, meaning you are familiar with them. I know that two plus two is four. I know how to juggle. I know Mark. In Italian, we have to get used to using two different verbs, sapere and conoscere, which both mean to know, but in different ways. Let's learn the difference now, so that we know when to use which verb!
