Nguồn gốc từ

ine-pro From Middle English couth, from Old English cūþ, past participle of cunnan (to be familiar with, know; can, to be able, know how), from Proto-Germanic *kunnaną (to be familiar with, know, recognize; to be able, know how) (compare *kunþaz (known)), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *ǵneh₃- (to know).
