Capable of being known or understood; knowable or perceivable by the mind.
From Latin 'cognoscibilis,' derived from 'cognoscere' (to know) plus '-ibilis' (capable of being), meaning 'capable of being known.'
Medieval philosophers wrestled with what was cognoscible versus what was beyond human understanding—whether abstract concepts like justice or love could really be 'known' the way physical objects could be.
