    This is the last verb that will be covered in this video, and since it is new to you, be sure to write down the different conjugations (forms of the verb). The verb 'sapere' means 'to know' but only when talking about information, facts, etc. You would not use the verb 'sapere' to say that you know someone. To say you know someone or are familiar with a place, use the verb 'conoscere' which is regular in the present tense.
