¿Qué significa " me la cuanto" ?

En la lección 2.3 Paralee da un ejemplo sobre que aprenderas y dice " me la cuanto"

If I'm not wrong she says cuanto. But as I suppose it should be a verb I am not able to find what that means.

Can you please help we with what she says?

Thanks.

That's why I think it may be cuenta, rather than cuento.

In that case, it's 3rd person, and I'd take it as an informal command. (The "tú"form of commands which you will learn about very soon.)

me IO - "to me"

la DO- it

cuenta - tell

So I would interpret "Me la cuenta" as "Tell it to me."

¿No?

Exactly I thought it should be cuanto as I am sure that I'll need a verb and that "ua" is because of the change in the verb.

But again it doesn't make any sense to say I am counting/telling to myself unless you're in an asylum!

I'm going to bet you're hearing a conjugation of contar, though cuento doesn't make sense to me. "Me la cuenta" perhaps?
