Hi sunny,

This short requests may be tricky sometimes

First we have to decide if we address the person formal or informally in order to choose the verb form.
Here, "Perdóneme" is formal (like in: "Forgive me, sir/madam) and "conocerte" (meet you) informal (btw, I think it should be "reconocerte" (recognize you)

What do you say?

Hi Lilly,

Thanks a lot for your corrections. In this sentence the person is adressed informally, and yes, it should be "recognize", so if we say "¡Perdóname! No he podido reconocerte." will it be correct now?

Better, but the most usual way to express it would be:
"¡Perdóname! No te he/había reconocido"

Thanks Lilly, I'll edit it now
So we shouldn't use here the verb "poder", right? Without it the whole phrase sounds more natural?

"No he podido reconocerte" sounds like: (Although I tried hard) I wasn't able to recognize you.
