💡 Grammar Points
The 'los' Attachment
When the verb is in its base form (infinitive), the word for 'them' (los) gets glued directly to the end.
Moving 'los' in Sentences
If you conjugate the verb (like 'I know' or 'we met'), the 'los' usually moves to the front: 'Los conozco' instead of 'Conocerlos'.
❌ Common Pitfalls
Conocer vs. Saber
Mistake: "Using 'saberlos' to mean knowing people."
Correction: Use 'conocerlos' for people and places. 'Saber' is for facts or information.
⭐ Usage Tips
Who is 'los'?
Remember that 'los' refers to a group of men or a mixed-gender group. If you are talking about only women, use 'conocerlas' instead.
