'Salir' is the Spanish verb for which English verb?

  1. to say

  2. to lead

  3. to leave

  4. to know (meet)

The correct answer is: to leave

'Salir' is the Spanish verb for 'to leave'. When conjugated, it becomes 'salgo' which translates to 'I leave'. This is different from 'to say' (decir), 'to lead' (guiar), and 'to know' (conocer). 'Decir' means 'to say' or 'to tell', 'guiar' means 'to guide' or 'to lead someone', and 'conocer' means 'to know' in the sense of being familiar with someone or something. 'Salir' specifically means 'to leave', so it is the best match out of the given options.
