Hello, and welcome to the forum. Perdón is pardon, as in a shortening of , "I beg your pardon." Perdone is the command form of perdonar, meaning "pardon me." As petticoat suggests, you can also say disculpe. The most natural-sounding one to use varies by context, and we say excuse me in various contexts in English, so if you could tell us a little bit more about the situation, we might be able to give you a better answer. Any of these should do though, generally.

or "excuse me ma'am" = perdone señora.
