Word origin

The word 'acknowledge' originated from the Latin word 'acknowledgere', which is a combination of 'ad' (towards) and 'cognoscere' (to recognize). It entered the English language in the late 15th century with the meaning of recognizing or admitting something. Over time, it has evolved to encompass both accepting the truth of a statement and showing recognition or appreciation for someone or something.
