“There is a big difference between knowing the name of something and knowing something”
— richard feynman
Simplified Meaning:
Simply recognizing what something is called isn't the same as truly understanding it. For instance, you might know the name of a bird, like a sparrow, but that doesn’t mean you understand how it lives, what it eats, or how it builds its nest. To really know something, you need to learn and understand its details and how it works. Think about riding a bicycle. You might know it has wheels, pedals, and a handlebar just by looking at it or hearing people talk about it. But, until you actually get on the bike and learn how to balance, pedal, and steer, you don’t really know how to ride it. This idea shows that just having a label for something doesn't mean you truly understand it. To fully grasp something, you need to experience it, study it deeply, or practice it. So, if you want to be knowledgeable, go beyond just learning names and seek to understand more deeply.
