Etymology
Inherited from Sanskrit जानाति (jānā́ti), from Proto-Indo-Aryan *ȷ́ānáHti, from Proto-Indo-Iranian *ȷ́ānáHti (compare Avestan 𐬰𐬀𐬥𐬄𐬥 (zanąn), Old Persian 𐎧𐏁𐎴𐎠𐎿𐎠𐏃𐎹 (x-š-n-a-s-a-h-y /xšnāsāhiy/) (Persian شناختن (šenâxtan)), Northern Kurdish zanîn, from Proto-Indo-European *ǵn̥néh₃ti (“to know”) (compare Old Church Slavonic знати (znati), English know).
