Spanish help
Is there anyone currently online that can help me with a few minor Spanish translations? Preferably someone who natively speaks it or uses it regularly and not just someone who's taken soem Spanish classes.

Is the proper way to say "I know" in Spanish "sé" or "conozco"?
The sentences I'm following with that are like this:
"I don't understand the menu."
"Can't you read?"
"She means it's all in a different language, Dad."
"I know. Just pick something at random."
The italicized part is what I'm asking about. I don't recall all the differences between saber and conocer so I'm not sure which to use.

It's been a long time since I used Spanish, but I think "conocer" is more like to know a person. So in the example you provided, you would use "saber".

Yeah, that's what my friend said, and I was kinda feeling sé over conozco anyways, so I'm just gonna go with that. If I'm wrong, it'll be a small error and shouldn't get too much counted off, if my teacher even catches that I added that into my line in the skit.

It is 'se'. Conocer is used mostly when talking about relations with people, while saber has a different implication. You would use saber, for example, if you're saying you know how to do something or that you have certain knowledge about something. Hope that helps...

Besides, we told ourselves to listen to this guy...

Bill: Why would we lie to ourselves?
