Etymology

The adjective **connu** comes from the past participle of the French verb *connaître*. *Connaître* is a borrowing from Latin *cognoscere* (“to know, to recognize”), itself formed from *com-* (“together”) + *nosco* (“to know”). Over time the participial form *cognōtus* evolved in Old French to *connu*, which entered modern French with its current sense of “known” or “established”.
