Bonjour,
I am missing the distinction in the use of savoir vs connaitre with facts. A good example is "to know a recipe".
It seems to have it memorized would use savoir, but to know of the recipe would be connaitre. But, from reading the lesson, it seems connaitre would be used in both instances.
Please help!
Thank you
Bonjour Susan,
Take a look at this lesson, which will explain the difference -
Connaître vs savoir = to know something vs to know how to do in French
Hope it helps!
Bonjour Susan,
If you could provide a link to the lesson, I would be happy to comment further.
In the meantime, have a look here, it may help -- https://dictionnaire.lerobert.com/synonymes/connaitre
Bonne journée
