Difference between no acuerdo and no recuerdo?

Question

I am using Pimsleur and they use acuerdo as remembering and when I look that up I get that it means agreement. Basically, I am trying to learn how to say, I don't remember, is there a different context in which one or the other is used? Thanks

Answer 1

Acordarse and recordar. Lo mismo pero expresado de dos formas:

1. Acordarse de is a pronominal verb. Me acuerdo de María. Me acuerdo del pasado.

2. Recordar is always intransitive... Recuerdo a María.. Recuerdo el pasado.

Answer 2

When using acordar to mean recordar, it is necessary for the verb to take the pronominal form acordarse (de), if not, it means "to agree".

Te recuerdo = Me acuerdo de ti = I remember you.

That's a very broad explanation; there are certain nuances, but not one that your question brings to mind. - diagonx, Oct 25, 2012

Answer 3

Te acuerdas de mi? / Recuerdas de mi? No no me acuerdo de ti.

Recuerdas de ese viaje a Mexico?

A cual?

Al que fuimos a Jalisco.

O si si. Ahora recuerdo de ese viaje

.....

Nunca jamas querre quedarme por dos dias. la proxima vez que vamos, planeamos quedarnos por una semana entera para que podamos ... va?

ok

Answer 4

In addition, the difference between the two words has a nuance similar to that of the two English expressions, ie: "to remember someone" and "to be reminded of someone."

Also, the noun form "recuerdo" is "memory" but "acorde" ( as Diagonx mentions) has nothing to do with remembering or memories but of "agreement" or in music "chord."
