Best Answer

It is derived from the Latin cognoscere, which is from cum "with, together" and gnoscere, "to come to know, to learn about". Gnoscere (which appears as noscerein Classical Latin, having lost its initial g-) is from the Proto-Indo-European root *gno-, which is the source of English "know" and Greek gnosis.
