knowledge
What education yields
Knowledge is a stored counterpart of something that existed, exists, or is true in the world.
Knowledge is stored both in people’s minds and in encoded forms, such as books.
Knowledge is gained through experience and education.
Common knowledge is information that everyone has or is expected to have: It was common knowledge that firms with social ties to the mayor got preferential contracts.
Have knowledge is a somewhat formal way of saying know.
