Dealing with very profound, difficult, or specialized subject matter; obscure and requiring deep knowledge to understand.
From Latin 'reconditus,' past participle of 'recondere' meaning 'to put away' or 'to hide.' The prefix 're-' (back) and 'condere' (to put or store) suggest knowledge that has been stored away, hidden from casual view.
Think 'recondite' as 're-con-dite'—knowledge that's been 'reconned' or hidden away in the depths. It's like intellectual treasure that requires serious digging to uncover.
