Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
The term combines 'tacit', originating from the Latin 'tacitus' meaning 'silent' or 'unspoken' (from tacere, 'to be silent'), and 'knowledge', from Old English 'cnāwan', meaning 'to recognize or understand'. The philosophical concept was famously popularized by Michael Polanyi in 1958 to describe understanding that is difficult to transfer by means of written or verbal communication.
