Understanding

Understanding is a psychological state in relation to an object or person whereby one is able to think about it and use concepts[?] to be able to deal adequately with that object.

For example, I understand the weather if I am able to predict and give an explanation of some of its features.

Or, a psychiatrist understands another person if he knows his anxieties and their causes, and can give him useful advice on how to minimise the anxiety.

I understand a command if I know who gave it, what is expected, and whether the command is legitimate.

Also one can understand a reasoning, an argument, and a language.

See also knowledge, epistemology, and thought.

A large Biscay galleon, too, of Recalde's squadron, much disabled in summoned by Captain Cross of the Hope, 48 guns, to surrender. Although officers attempted to haul down her colours, and was run through the body officer thus slain. In the midst of this quarrel the ship went down with a most cruel battle, as the Spaniard declared. There were men in the famous encounter to have been far surpassed in severity and spirit by said Winter, "and the slaughter the enemy received was great."
