Me alegró

meh ah-leh-GROH

It made me happy / I was pleased

💬 In phrases like [me alegró] or [me encantó], [me] means "to me," so the idea is literally "it pleased me" or "it delighted me." You can reuse the pattern with other things: [Me interesó mucho] = "It interested me a lot."

Conocerte

koh-noh-SEHR-teh

To meet you

💬 When you attach [te] to the end, [conocer] becomes [conocerte]: one word meaning "to meet you." The same happens with other verbs: [llamarte] = "to call you," [escribirte] = "to write to you."

💬 Spanish often says this idea as "it made me happy to meet you" rather than directly "I was glad to meet you": [Me alegró conocerte]. That same pattern works with other reactions too, like [Me interesó conocerte] or [Me encantó conocerte].
