Etymology
'acknowledger' originates from Middle English, specifically the word 'aknowlechen,' where 'a-' meant 'to' and 'knowlechen' meant 'to admit or confess.'
'aknowlechen' transformed into the modern English word 'acknowledge,' and eventually became 'acknowledger' to denote a person who acknowledges.
Initially, it meant 'to admit or confess,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'to recognize or admit the existence or truth of something.'
