knowledge

/ˈnɒlɪdʒ/noun

Information and understanding about a subject, place, or situation that a person has gained.

Example sentence

  • Her knowledge of local plants comes from years of hiking these hills.

Uncountable: 'much knowledge', never 'knowledges'. 'To my knowledge' hedges a claim; 'common knowledge' needs no source.
