It's about time I said hello

Hi,

I've been here for a few months, mostly just looking at other threads and not posting. Today it dawned on me that I should say hi.

I guess "dawn on me" would be "me dé cuenta"?

Anyway, I'll get back to my lurking and occasional posting.

Anna

Debe ser "da", sin acento. En LA es habitual decir "me da mucho gusto conocerte", mientras que nosotros decimos "encantado/a de conocerte" o solo "mucho gusto".

Hola, espero que escribas a menudo.

"Me di cuenta" o "me he dado cuenta."
