USE OF SABER
In order to express the idea ‘to know (a fact/idea/concept) ’, Spanish uses the verb saber.
•Yo dónde está Marta.
•Yo no dónde está Marta.
¿ Sabes mi nombre?
(Notice that this is different from the verb conocer which means ‘to know (a person)’ in the sense of ‘to be acquainted with’ .)
SABER
(yo) (nosotros, -as) sabemos
(tú) sabes (vosotros, -as) sabéis
(él/ella/usted) sabe (ellos/ellas/ustedes) saben
