- I will teach you the differences between the Spanish verbs "saber" and "conocer." These two verbs will help you perfect your Spanish because you will know when to use "saber" to know, and conocer, to know again. Stop making mistakes and let Ana banana help you to understand Spanish language forever. in English you say, I know Pedro and I know what is in the exam. Ahhhhhh, but in Spanish we use different verbs to say each sentence. Do you know why? Well, I will teach you if you watch my videos to learn Spanish. Sí, claro, cómo no, Ana. I am not joking, it is true because I am cool as a cucumber[-.-]

Your channel is my favourite! My mother tongue is French and the verb ''to know'' is basically the same in French, we have ''savoir'' and ''connaître'' and we use them the same way as you do in Spanish. Thank you for your amazing lessons, I'm learning so much more with your videos than I do in my Spanish classes :)
I speak French too, and it's easier for me to learn Spanish now since I have a background in French, being my second language.
A while ago I just started watching butterfly Spanish. I love how this woman makes Española so humorous and a joy to learn.
Can you do a video on 'Lo' please? I'm not sure how/where to put it in a sentence and it confuses me🙈 saludos de Escocia!
Are used as the direct objects of verbs, and Only with masculine object. Lo its singular and Los its plural.
Examples:
Haz visto esa pelicula? - Si, lo he visto.
Have you seen that movie? - Yes, I saw it.
Conoces a esta persona? - Si lo conozco.
You know this person? - Yes, I know him.
Note: masculine words are those that most of them ends with L, O, N, E, R, S.
"Pelicula" is feminine, so we use «la» «sí, la he visto» and another thing «Haz» is an imperative, is the verb «Hacer» and «Has» is the verb «haber» so you have to say «¿Has visto la pelicula?» «has comido» «haz la tarea» «haz la comida»
Laura Taylor you can add (me te se lo la nos os y se) on to a verb or before. por ejemplo: Papá está bebiéndolo O Papá lo está bebiendo. but the "lo" has to be referring to a masculine word (vino) and same would go for "la" but a feminine word. just remember if added to verb make sure you put an accent either over the "e" or "a" depending on syllables.
Maybe you mean the neuter article: lo fácil, lo rápido, lo mejor: the easy thing, the fast thing, the best thing. In these cases gender and number of the subject or object has not to be considered,
Lo mejor es lo caro.
Lo mejor (para pintar) son las pinturas acrílicas
Lo mejor (para pintar) es la pintura acrílica
La pintura plástica es lo peor.
although the adjectives are used in masculine singular.
These are used when speaking about a particular subject, when you do not want to use a particular noun, but it can be guessed from the context if necessary.
This is different from lo as direct object pronoun, which is what they have already explained.
La, lo le, las,los, les ( al principio) en un principio resulta confuso pero luego " Lo" iras captando ."Lo mas fácil es aprender con Ana ella" Lo explica todo muy bien Animo desde Las tierras de Gibraltar -Paz ,Salud y larga vida
i always love the way she says "vosotros", like trying the castellano accent
Sí trato de imitarlo porque a mí también me gustas :)
muhammad arif Más bien ella debería hablar el español latíno como el de México, Chile, El Salvador... Aunque en México cada estado tiene su forma de hablar o la forma en que dicen las palabras.
I wish everyone was like Butterfly Ana. So cute and funny, and an excellent teacher.
Gotta love any teacher who references Sponge Bob, love it!
Tengo que mirar El Señor de los Anillos. -_-
Sus clases son adorables. Gracias!
Abrazos desde Brasil.
Muchas gracias ! You are the best at explaining minutiae in Spanish !!
Se7en Yng Gracias a ti :)
Hi Ana~
Can you do some videos about "muy/mucho and bueno/buen/bien"?
I like your lessons very much! And your explanation is really clear! Thankyou so much to offer these great videos online :)
鍾欣諭 ¡Hola! Claro que sí, haré un video sobre este tema. Saludos,
¿Anna, no se incluyen la palabra "como" cuando usando saber y un verbo infinitivo? Por ejemplo, "sé como escribir en español." ¿Es correcto decir, "sé escribir en español?"
I‘m speaking 6 languages and English is the only one which doesn’t differentiate between “saber” and “ conocer” !! so if you’re not a native English speaker, this is probably totally normal to you
Why is the first sentence "Yo conozco Bogotá" but in the second you say "Yo conozco A Gollum"? Why do you use the preposition "a" only in the second sentence?
PazEr Excellent question :) It is because I am talking about a person. When you are going to introduce a person or an animal you have to add the preposition a. If the object is not a person or an animal (animated object) you shall not use the personal a. Is this clear? I will do a video with this topic when I talk about direct an indirect objects :) Saludos
Butterfly Spanish Entiendo, la diferencia entre estos verbos es muy similar al italiano, el mi idioma. ¡Gracias y hasta luego!
In short :
Use Saber when you know something or someone distant (foreign)
Use Conocer when you know deeply know someone or something intimately (familiar)
I love the way you explain, it is very cute and easy to follow. I hope the trolls never find you ..
Ahmad Al-Shafai Essentially saber is for facts and how to do things
Conocer is people, places, and things and (not mentioned) meeting someone new
Trolls aren't often on educating channels.
Trolls dont go near education channels .... no worries 😀
@@dorro4813 hahahahahahahhaha
Roberto despite what Tosi Yamato and Dorro would have you believe Butterfly is mildly trolling; For some reason it does not make sense in español mexicano
Hola Ana!
Puedes hacer un video sobre las diferencias entre 'llevar' y 'traer' y un otro sobre las diferencias entre 'encontrarse' y 'conocerse' ? Podrían muy útil porque son muy similares y no entiendo muy bien! Muchas gracias y besos desde Irlanda xx
ellee421 Claro que sí :) Gracias por la sugerencia.
She talks so long but she is a perfect teacher. Also, she is fun ,pretty and full of energy. If I wasn't so desperate to learn Spanish better, I would say is excellent.
No conozco Bogotá pêro tenho clases de español con Butterfly Spanish y sé, ahora, puedo escribir en español.
Saludos desde Brasil.👍🏻😉☺️🌺
Currently studying for finals and I must say thank you for breaking down the difference!
bstrouble same
thank you very much Ana for your fruitful lessons. Thumbs up to you. Much gracias
¡Gracias Ana por tu tus clases de español! Since i found your channel ,my Spanish has improved a lot! I I also subscribed to your newsletter! ¡Tu eres una profesora maravilloso!
absolutely amazing vid. there are a lot of words that mean very similar things but are used in different contexts (ser and estar, por and para, acabar and terminar. etc.) that are throwing me off. glad you made the vid. now I don't have to worry about saber and conocer anymore!
Anna, could you please make a video about the different versions of "to go" ? It still confuse me, also the thing about Tener and haber too
Exact same for me
***** Muy bien, lo haré :)
Butterfly Spanish Gracias Anna. Me gustan tus lecciones de español, me ayudas mucho, sigue asi porfa. Saludos desde Alemania
ahora yo sé la fantastica defferencia entre el verbo "saber" y "conocer" gracias a ti ANNA :)
!Eres genial! me encanta, qué entusiasmo, qué energía! todo bien clarito. Saludos de otra profe de español desde España :)
yo sé español e inglés pero me gusta ver cómo enseñas 😂 jejeje
"...for those of you that know what I'm talking about, let's move on ".

Hola Ana =] could you make a video about verbo+infinitivo+pronombre personal/reflexivo ?
and thank you so much, you helped me a lot in my Spanish class.
Great work as always, Ana! You are the best Spanish teacher online! Gracias!
I love your lessons, Anna. Greetings from The Netherlands. Please continue!
Peter van Nederpelt Saludos desde California :)
50 peple who disliked the video: the girls who are jeolous of her beauty and the teachers who want to be famous or teach like her but cant. :)
Kashif Khan .... you’re probably right.
Hola Anna
i am from Tunisia and really i like your way for teaching , you so cute andy funny
i wish all best for you
hola anna greetings from iraq i hope u continue in grammatica i think this video is new thank you
In summary, “saber” refers to basic knowledge by meaning “to know” while “conocer” means familiarity. Think of “conocer” as if that verb is similar to “connection” in English. You can’t be familiar with someone or something without a connection!
Gracias! Estoy de EEUU pero vivía en Honduras 7 años. Ahorita estoy viviendo en Arkansas y enseñando español - la primera vez - y estaba buscando ayuda para explicar cosas difíciles a mis estudiantes. Su canal es oro para mí!! I love your enthusiasm and the many examples. It is 2022 now, do you still teach?
I think it might be good to mention that SABER can mean "to know HOW", not just "to know".
Such a great Spanish Teacher!!!! so useful!!!
Love your lessons, your videos are fanny and you are a great teacher Ana. Also you are so cute that it's fun watching your videos,
its funny. Fanny means something else in England
Excelente explicación. Felicitaciones por tan lindo trabajo. ¡Qué hermoso idioma tenemos! Saludos desde la Argentina.
Yo soy de Canada y me gusta todo tu lecciones de espanol y te sentidas de humor!😀

I'm so in trouble much with this language... like when I use por,para,a... as a ti,por ti para tu... it's so headache...and is that te quiero in Spanish is I love you or I want u? what is that true feelings of this words? express love or just general want like in English... gracias por tu ayudante...
dhea lovyou Gracias a ti :)
Butterfly Spanish Hi Ana.could you tell me the Spanish hits songs 2015?
dhea lovyou
Gracias Ana love your lessons it help me allot in español
At 18:25 Gollum arrives...
Could you explain the difference between "Pedir" and "Preguntar"? :-)
The verb pedir is used when your are asking for something e.g. Juan no tenia a quien pedirle ( pedir) consejo. ....The verb preguntar is used for asking a question e.g. Preguntémosle (preguntar) a dónde va esta noche.
And soon PARA y POR? Thanks in advance.
Thank you! I am enlightened yet again :)- I just need to find people to practice with!
in french we have the same difference between savoir and connaitre, and as in spanish, it is rather complex to explain how and when we use them. anyways, you are a great teacher, lots of energy, i really like it.
I like your enthusiastic lesson. Thanks for today''s lesson.
I love how the word 'Vosotros' has become a running gag in your videos. :D Much love from Filipinas.
I love her eyes...i fall in love with her...she is so beautiful...
¡Gracias! Your lessons are my favourite!
Caiden White Gracias a ti :)
Dear Anna,
I live in Canada were Spanish is rarely spoken so watching your videos is a real delight. Thank you for posting them. Cheers!
+Michael Odesse Espero que estos videos te ayuden a aprender más y más español. Saludos desde México. Stay warm in Canada. I send you some heat and sun :) Thank you for watching my videos :)
this is really helpful😊😊😊👌👌
I appreciate your videos and all the time you spend dedicated to teach us! Muchas gracias Ana!
Anna, you are an excellent teacher. You explain things so well! Quiero aprender mas espanol!
Yo sé quien es Jesus, pero lo conozco
Interesting fact: we actually have the same thing in English. "Ken" means to be familiar with something. It's fallen out of use in most of the English speaking world, and those who still use it tend to use it wrong. Scots, for instance, use it in place of "understand".
Hi, it's 2024, and I'm watching your videos from 8 years ago. I have a lot to catch up on, starting from the oldest video! I wish to meet the present you soon!
You are good teacher Anna! I will need to do this lesson lots of times however, as my poor little old brain is SLOW. Haaaahaaa!! x
Love your friends that don’t read the newspaper and don’t watch the news !! Those are SMART friends jajajaj
quieron aprender English🙊🙈😒👏👶👏😍🙈👸😜😒🙅😒🙅❤😏👆😏😍🙍🙍👸🙍👸🙍👸😁
Thanks - really useful
These lessons teach me a lot. Big applauses for your effort !! Muchas gracias a ti y saludos de Turquia :)
So much energy in this video! Did you just have your coffee?
Samuel Yergler I had two coffees, and teaching makes me really happy and energetic. I would like to say more and more and more and I only have certain period of time, jejeje.
Muy fácil a aprender! I compare it to French which is savoir and connaître, kind of similar. Ahora yo se la diferencia, gracias Ana!
We have multiple words for "To know" for example. "Familiar" and "Acquainted", The thing is, is that we don't use them as much as the word "Know". Conocer is more like "Familiar or Acquainted.
For an example.
"I'm antiquated with Pablo."- "Conozco a Pablo"
"I know the Rosetta method" - " I'm familiar with the Rosetta Stone Method"
When we say we "know" someone, we should say we are "Acquainted with"
あなた わ きれい です。 U0001f44d
I mean all meanings of the word.
Gracias a ti
I came across this lesson by accident. At first I thought it was going to be teaching 'conocer y saber' in a very sterile, uninteresting way. Ana, la profesora, is excellent and very funny: humour helps make the seriousness of learning a good experience. I speak Welsh. We have the same in Welsh. Saber = Gwybod. Conocer = Adnabod (usually shortened to 'Nabod). So, I understand the concept. I have been learning Spanish for 5 weeks in a Spanish academy here in Cardiff, Wales. I use the internet to consolidate learning. I've come across some very helpful sites, I must say, and. I'm glad I stumbled on Butterfly Spanish! ¡Muchisimas gracias por una lección informativa y divertida, Ana!
Volveré en cuanto pueda.
Your examples say, "Yo sé cocinar/hacer/llegar" - literally "I know to cook/make/get to". But sometimes I heard you use the word "cómo" in there. Is it correct either way to say "yo sé cocinar" or "yo sé cómo cocinar"? "Yo sé llegar" or "yo sé cómo llegar"?
Hola Ana,
buena explicación pero el problema es que puede decirse: "Yo se llegar al aeropuerto de Las Vegas" y "yo conozco como llegar al aeropuerto de Las Vegas" y ambas expresiones significan lo mismo. No sabría explicar esta circunstancia de porque el uso del "como" adverbial permite esta equivalencia, no se tanta gramática, y menos en inglés, quizás podrías aclararlo. Un saludo
Muchas gracias, Ana. I adore you and your videos are so instructive and helpful. You're a fabulous teacher.
Por favor--11:00 Why the "a" in Yo conozco a Gollum? Gracias.
Seems that SABER is used for academic knowledge whereas CONOCER is knowledge from personal experience. So for something like language, tú conoces espanol?
Is it safe to say that for the most part, if it's followed by a noun, it's CONOCER, but if it's followed by a verb or que/quién/cual/etc it's SABER?
Dear Ana, Why do many maestros de espanol typically use a "masculine inflection" (not sure how else to describe it) of their voice when describing the vos conjugation of a verb (~eis por ejemplo)? It almost comes across as a disdain of the Spanish dialect of the language. What's up with that? Muchisimas gracias,Max
Two other sets of verbs that seem to be used interchangeably but have different meanings in English are: Oir (to hear) and (to listen) escuchar, and pensar (to think) and creer (to believe). Are they truly synonyms in Spanish? Or, should they be used contextually?
I was having fun watching & learning as well! Muchisimas gracias!
Lesson 27. Se: i know. Sabes: you know. Venido: i come. Venid: come. Venid aquí: come here. Quien: who. Película: movie. Hacer: make.
llegar: to get. Yo sé cómo llegar: i know how to get there. Loca : crazy. Mi vida loca: my crazy life. Pasando: going. Mundo: world. Cuál: which. Morado: purple. helado: 🍧
Claro: sure. Esperando: hoping for. Esperar: expect. Quién Eres: who you are? Quien : who. Cómo: what. cómo estás: how are you.
No se como llegar al aeropuerto. Que bueno. se nada : i know nothing. Se que esta pasando en el mundo 🌍.
Sort of like the difference between to know & to know of... A person can know of Germany being in Europe, but they don't know Germany because they are not familiar with the place, the people, nor how to get there. However, to be familiar with someone or something as in - to know someone or something well, could be a fact for person or group A, but not for person or group B. Therefore, it to me is like 1 verb represents more concrete knowledge, and ability. While the other is more of an example of being aware or unaware, knowledge of, but not familiar with (a person, thing, or place). German also has 2 verbs to express 'to know '; occasionally a 3rd verb is used to express 'to know ' but more like - to have the ability to (the know how), similar to saber in Spanish, but takes it 1 step further I think.
Siempre yo disfruto tus lesiones Anna. Hacerlo divertido y yo recuerdo las palabras bien cuando aprendo de ti. Has pensado de haciendo lesiones más difíciles para las personas que sabe un poquito más? Gracias por tu compromiso y que bonita la cara!
Hello Anna, when you say "Yo conozco muy bien la cocina mexicana." isn't it a knowledge then why don't you use SABER instead of conocer ? a bit confused! Gracias.
Gracias Ana por más ese excelente video. Estás embarazada? Estoy muy feliz por usted. Y tienes mucha energia para prosseguir a trabajar con los videos.
15:11 Your friend adds "como" how, "no se como llegar al aeropuerto" but you don't use it in the examples that you say. Is adding "como" optional or maybe just used for emphasis, or perhaps only in the negative?
The longer I'm learning Spanish the more I'm getting the feeling it's similar to Polish.
+Grzegorz Jońca Me da mucho gusto saber esto porque me encanta cómo se escucha el polaco :)

Hi Ana. Can you do a video on how to use lo que? When and why. Please pretty please with sugar on top
how do you say "I only know that I don`t know"
Yo solo se que yo no se. But the saying is " Yo solo se que nada se".
Which form would you use if i wanted to say, "I know Spanish and English". I know I can use hablo but I am curious. Thanks
Your friend Gergana is Bulgarian, right? Grasias por tu ayuda! Tes cours sont vraiment utiles, ça m'aide beaucoup ! Merci, благодаря ти!
Hello Ana
Thank you for this brilliant Idea to teach those who wants to learn spanish for free. But I just have some observation, you are naughty, I mean you move a lot and you talk and explained so fast.😊 i am sorry, its just an observation.. but you help me a lot.
Shes funny!!
Hola Anna, I recently started to learn Spanish and was lucky enough to come across your videos which you present Spanish language lots more interesting and comprehensive . Where does one begin to learn Spanish in order to have a stronger foundation . Gracias
El cual establece una clara distinction entre lo real y lo irreal, entre el CONOCIMIENTO y la PERCEPCION.
It strikes me a scene from the movie Good Will Hunting, Robin Rilliams explains to Will the difference between Saber and conocer.
i am studying butterfly Spanish ...its very interesting and really impress by her teaching skill .... i love her funniest way .....
Maybe soon a Face Book Page? And Ana, thank you so much from the heart. You have taught el Gringojhon so much. And I have enjoyed your teaching method, your stage presence, personality and humor. Mil GRACIAS. Muchisimo Gracias.
