KNOWLEDGE

n.nol'lej. 1. A clear and certain perception of that which exists, or of truth and fact; the perception of the connection and agreement, or disagreement and repugnancy of our ideas.
We can have no knowledge of that which does not exist. God has a perfect knowledge of all his works. Human knowledge is very limited, and is mostly gained by observation and experience.
2. Learning; illumination of mind.
Ignorance is the curse of God, knowledge the wing wherewith we fly to heaven.
3. Skill; as a knowledge of seamanship.
4. Acquaintance with any fact or person. I have no knowledge of the man or thing.
5. Cognizance; notice. Ruth 2:1 , 19.
6. Information; power of knowing.
7. Sexual intercourse. But it is usual to prefix carnal; as carnal knowledge.

Webster's 1913 Dictionary

KNOWLEDGE

Knowl "edge, n. Etym: [OE. knowlage, knowlege, knowleche, knawleche.The last part is the Icel. suffix -leikr, forming abstract nouns, orig. the same as Icel. leikr game, play, sport, akin to AS. lac, Goth. laiks dance. See Know, and cf. Lake, v. i., Lark a frolic. ]

 

1. The act or state of knowing; clear perception of fact, truth, or duty; certain apprehension; familiar cognizance; cognition. Knowledge, which is the highest degree of the speculative faculties, consists in the perception of the truth of affirmative or negative propositions. Locke.

 

2. That which is or may be known; the object of an act of knowing; a cognition; -- chiefly used in the plural. There is a great difference in the delivery of the mathematics, which are the most abstracted of knowledges. Bacon. Knowledges is a term in frequent use by Bacon, and, though now obsolete, should be revived, as without it we are compelled to borrow "cognitions " to express its import. Sir W. Hamilton. To use a word of Bacon's, now unfortunately obsolete, we must determine the relative value of knowledges. H. Spencer.

 

3. That which is gained and preserved by knowing; instruction; acquaintance; enlightenment; learning; scholarship; erudition. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth. 1 Cor. viii. 1. Ignorance is the curse of God; -Knowledge, the wing wherewith we fly to heaven. Shak.

 

4. That familiarity which is gained by actual experience; practical skill; as, a knowledge of life. Shipmen that had knowledge of the sea. 1 Kings ix. 27.

 

5. Scope of information; cognizance; notice; as, it has not come to my knowledge. Why have I found grace in thine eyes, that thou shouldst take knowledge of me Ruth ii. 1 .

 

6. Sexual intercourse; -- usually preceded by carnal; as, carnal knowledge.

 

Syn. -- See Wisdom.

WORD LINKS gnostic relating to knowledge Word Links sections supply words that are related to the headword but do not normally appear in a thesaurus because they are not actual synonyms.CHOOSE THE RIGHT WORD knowledge, erudition, information, learning, pedantry, scholarship, wisdom How much do you know? Knowledge applies to any body of facts gathered by study, observation, or experience, and to the ideas inferred from these facts (an in-depth knowledge of particle physics; firsthand knowledge about the company ). Information may be no more than a collection of data or facts (information about vacation resorts ) gathered through observation, reading, or hearsay, with no guarantee of their validity (false information that led to the arrest ). Scholarship emphasizes academic knowledge or accomplishment (a special award for scholarship ), while learning is knowledge gained not only by study in schools and universities but by individual research and investigation (a man of education and learning ), which puts it on a somewhat higher plane. Erudition is on a higher plane still, implying bookish knowledge that is beyond the average person's comprehension (exhibit extraordinary erudition in a doctoral dissertation ). Pedantry, on the other hand, is a negative term for a slavish attention to obscure facts or details or an undue display of learning (the pedantry of modern literary criticism ). You can have extensive knowledge of a subject and even exhibit erudition, however, without attaining wisdom, the superior judgment and understanding that is based on both knowledge and experience. These notes show fine distinctions in meaning between closely related synonyms to help you find the best word.
