Connaître vs. Savoir

Do you ever mix up connaître and savoir when communicating in French? It's understandable, especially for English speakers as we don't have two ways of saying "to know". This video will give you a simple rule to follow that will really help you decide when to use each verb.

"Je connais son adresse. je sais où il habite."
"Je sais qui chante, je connais le chanteur."
"Je connais quelqu'un qui nage. Je sais qu'il nage."
"Je connais le chanteur. Je sais qui chant."

This is not true. "Je sais le nom du professeur" would be correct. "Le nom" is a noun. You use savoir here because you know this fact. To say "je connais le nom du prof" would signify you are familiar with that name, as in you have heard the name "Bob" before.

Don’t forget that you can say je sais Mariah Carey mais je ne le connais pas bien

I think you should let a native read the sentences in French and you explain the subject in English
