  • She had a knowing smile on her face, indicating that she understood the joke.
  • The lawyer advised his client to sign the contract with a knowing waiver of the right to counsel.
  • He made a knowing attempt to cheat on the exam by hiding notes in his calculator.

The first example illustrates the first part of the definition, as the person is aware and understands the joke. The second example illustrates the second part of the definition, as the person is deliberately and consciously waiving their right to counsel. The third example also illustrates the second part of the definition, as the person is deliberately and consciously attempting to cheat on the exam.

Simple Definition

Knowing: When you know something, it means you are aware of it or understand it. You might have learned about it before or have experience with it. If you do something on purpose, it's called a knowing action. For example, if you cheat on a test and you know it's wrong, that's a knowing attempt to cheat.

A lawyer without books would be like a workman without tools.
