"He and she know."

Translation: 그와 그녀는 압니다.

[MarjiMagno]

Why is 알았어요 not acceptable?

[teamTNT]

알았어요 means 'knew'.
he and she knew could translate 그와 그녀는 알았어요 or 알았습니다.

[CooperReid4]

That's past tense

[WonderDusk]

알았어요 is the past tense of To Know

[solrock92]

Shouldn't 안다 conjugate to 안습니다?

[wintertriangles]

To know is 알다 (which drops the ㄹ in certain conjugations). 안다 is to hug.

[Ben278950]

I believe that 안다 is also the present tense of 알다 conjugated in the plain form, but I might be mistaken.

[CooperReid4]

It's not

[WonderDusk]

Does anyone know why 압니다 is used instead of 알아요?
