What is the difference in 'perdón' and 'perdone'?

Question

The dictionary seems to indicate they mean 'sorry'. Is one preferable? Are they used in different contexts? Thanks for clarification.

Answer 1

xxxxman:

"perdón" is a masculine noun. See its definition here ----> Perdón, defined. So, we can say that 'perdón' represents a thing.

"perdone" is the first person singular present subjunctive of the verb perdonar. See how the verb is conjugated here ----> Perdonar Conjugation.. So, we can say that perdone (from perdonar) represents an action.

I hope this is some help.
