Understanding

Understanding between humans is always a negotiation with a misunderstanding. (G. Eiríksson, 2022).
Both the same and different than knowledge, understanding is an act.ge
Old English understanding "comprehension," verbal noun from understand (v.). Meaning "mutual agreement" is attested from 1803.
The difference between understanding and knowing is not clear. The concepts are used as synonyms, but not perfectly so.
E.g. "I know it" said John. But, bud, do you understand it?
E.g. I know a man. But I feel like I don't understand him.
