Preterite with different meanings

Conocer (two meanings) Some verbs take on different meanings in the preterite than what they mean in the present tense. In the present tense, conocer means to know someone or to be familiar with a place or thing. It has an irregular yo form. conoZco, conoces, conoce – —¿Conoces a Jorge? – —No, pero conozco a su hermano. PERO…Conocer is regular in the preterite. Use it in the preterite to say you met someone or got to know a place for the first time.
