Placer de conocerte o placer en conocerte?

Question

???

Answer 1

A common and correct way to say this in Spain, is to say: Encantado de conocerle or to a child/young person: Encantado de conocerte which both mean: It's a pleasure to meet you! These greetings, which are often shortened to encantado for a man or encantada for a woman are often used in Spain, although Mucho gusto = Very pleased to meet you has become much more common. I met a family from Madrid recently while playing the piano in a local hotel in my city and used Encantado de conocerle (te) while shaking their hands!

You will either hear the same in response, igualmente (the same to you) or sometimes mucho gusto. When I was staying in the region of Cataluna in Nothern Spain, in a town called Calella - about 1 1/4 hour train ride from Barcelona, - I was often greeted with mucho gusto in response, when introducing myself to Spanish natives in Calella, Pineda de Mar and Barcelona.

The phrase Annie gave you is also correct: Fue un placer conocerle (te) = It was a plasure to meet you!

I hope this helps you

yes, good answer, although it's usually enough just to say ' Encantado'. ' Mucho gusto'.o - annierats, Jun 18, 2013

Answer 2

Neither, normally.

Fue un placer conocerte. ( It was a pleasure to meet you. )

Answer 3

They both basically mean "Pleasure to meet you"... They are perhaps a shortened form of " it is a pleasure to meet you" More context would help

Answer 4

I´ve heard south americans use ¨fue un placer en conocerte¨ Also, ¨mucho gusto en conocerte¨
