I don´t know her.
- A.

- B.
Yo no los conozco.
- C.
Yo no la conozco.
- D.
Yo no te conozco.
Correct Answer
C. Yo no la conozco.Explanation

The other options "Yo no lo conozco" (referring to a male person), "Yo no los conozco" (referring to multiple people), and "Yo no te conozco" (referring to the person being spoken to) are not correct in this particular sentence.Rate this question:
