How to use conocer in the conditional
The conditional of conocer is regular: conocería, conocerías, conocería, conoceríamos, conocerían. Use it for hypotheticals ("Si vivieras aquí, conocerías a todos") and polite questions: "¿Conocería usted a alguien que...?" It is helpful for networking requests, when you ask whether someone might know a contact. Like the future, it keeps the full infinitive as its stem, so the zc of conozco does not appear here. Remember the personal "a" before people.
