In order for the light to shine so brightly, the darkness must be present.
Sir Francis Bacon
Intención
not to know; to ignore
Like many Spanish words, ignorar shares one of its meanings with its English cousin, ignore, but also has a second meaning, not to know. Journalists often use it in this second meaning:
• Por el momento se ignoran los motivos del accidente.
For the time being the reasons for the accident are unknown.
You also often use ignorar in the first person in more formal speech.
• Ignoro si dichos papeles son auténticos ...
I don’t know if the papers mentioned are authentic ...
The other meaning is to ignore:
• Es mejor ignorarla.
It’s best to ignore her.
