Identifying the 'I' form
The '-o' ending on an '-ar' verb like 'perdonar' almost always means the person doing the action is 'yo' (I). 'Perdono' means 'I forgive'.
Using 'Te' or 'Le'
When you forgive a person, you often use a small word like 'te' (you, informal) or 'le' (him/her/you, formal) right before the verb: 'Yo te perdono' (I forgive you).
Forgetting the 'I'
Mistake: “"Perdono tú." (I forgive you.)”
Correction: "Yo te perdono." or simply "Te perdono." The 'yo' (I) is usually dropped because the verb ending already tells you who is speaking.
