    The easy way I was taught to remember this. SAVOIR is to have knowledge. CONNAÎTRE is to be familiar with.

    For Portuguese speakers learning French this one is easy because to know something e to someone/somewhere are different and very similar to the French form. I love you videos and I’m learning a lot with them! Merci.

    I am Polish but also a fluent Italian language speaker so for me the use of "savoir" and "connaître" is very similar to the use of "sapere" e "conoscere".

      In Latin, the ancestor of all Romance languages, the same distinction is made between “scire“ (to know - compare the noun “scientia,” science or knowledge) and “cognoscere” (to be familiar with - see the English adjective “cognitive” and the noun “cognition,“ which both refer to mental processes.👍

    Fun fact: in Polish language we also distinguish these two words: wiedzieć (savoire) and znać (connaître). Russian and Ukrainian people use them wrong when they speak Polish, because they always say znać (connaître). For example, instead of saying "I know (that it's raining)" - wiem (je sais) - they say znam (je connais).

      Yeah in German it’s the same, “kennen” (connaître) is like knowing a person and “wissen” (savoir) is more like knowing how to do something

    Oh, it's so good to learn French being a Brazilian that speaks English. You all just don't know how much French can be similar to both Portuguese and English. It's marvellous. I can use my knowledge of the verbs "saber" and "conhecer" in Portuguese to learn "savoir" and "connaître" in French. I can use my knowledge of "still", "already", and "yet" in English to learn "toujours", "déjà", and "encore". Magnifique! Le français est très beau. J'espère apprendre un peu chaque jour !

    Merci! That was a great post! However I got confused with one of the questions: (No.2) ‘je sais cette rue car…’ vs ‘je connais cette rue car…’ Earlier you said there are two reasons for using ‘savoir’:
    1) knowing how to do something and
    2) knowing specific facts or knowledge. Surely knowing a street because you were born there is a ‘specific fact’, therefore savoir could be used, no?

  • @MichelSLAGMULDER
    @MichelSLAGMULDER Год назад

    I want to make a small clarification. There is a difference between "Je connais cette chanson" and "Je sais cette chanson". What is the difference? "connaître" is used for imperfect knowledge that has several angles of attack and that we cannot know in totality. examples: people from cities from countries ..... "savoir" is used for any knowledge that can be learned in totality. example the alphabet. To describe the alphabet it is enough to list its 26 letters. For a poem it is enough to know the text. "Je connais cette chanson" has two possible meanings. "I've heard it before" or "I know the words" but "Je sais cette chanson" has only one meaning "I know the words". However it is that every time you can put "savoir" before a noun, you can also put "connaitre", so for a beginner level your rule is enough, however your students should not be surprised if they find exceptions
