====References====
* {{Han ref|kx=0497.150|dkj=14010|dj=0863.230|hdz=21518.150|uh=667A|ud=26234|bh=B4BC|bd=46268}}

==Chinese==
{{zh-forms|alt=知,𣉻,𥏼}}

===Glyph origin===
{{Han etym}}
Originally the same character as {{zh-l|*知}}, used interchangeably. In {{w|oracle bone inscriptions}}, {{Han compound|ls=ic|大|口|子|t1=adult|t2=mouth|t3=child|nocap=yes}} – to transmit knowledge. In western Zhou bronze inscriptions, {{zh-l|*甘}} started being added. As time went by, {{zh-l|*子}} corrupted into {{zh-l|*于}}, {{zh-l|*大}} into {{och-l|矢}}, and {{zh-l|*甘}} into {{zh-l|*白}}, giving rise to the form seen in the {{w|Shuowen Jiezi}} ({{zh-l|*𥏼}}). The component {{zh-l|*于}} was dropped around the {{w|Han_dynasty#Western_Han|Western Han}}, arriving at the modern form.

Now a {{Han compound|知|日|ls=psc|c1=p|c2=s}}.

===Etymology===
Exopassive of {{och-l|知|to know}}, literally “what is known > knowledge”.
