I had always learned and also read stories in books where conversations began and ended with a long dash, (un guion). The grandma was always saying ends with a colon. I expected a guion at the beginning of what she said and also the first letter of her first word to be Capitalized. I am confused.

Looks like English translation in the second example is wrong.h

Is this true for all regular verbs (-ar, -ir, -er)?

I kept expecting this to end with something like, “y la odio.” :)

1. Yo no sabía que ellos ya conocían a nuestro sobrino. 

2. Yo no sabía lo que ellos ya conocían a nuestro sobrino.  

What it be if the sentence is "I didn't know what they already knew our nephew."

Thank you.

Hello,

Thank you very much for this lesson !

I am curious how this structure would work if the direct object is a pronoun, something like the following.

I had a beautiful beer mug.  I accidentally dropped it.
