1
Identify from previous knowledge
To know a person or thing because you saw or heard them before.

to recognise [someone/something]

مرادفات
identify (More formal and can be used in technical contexts, but similar in meaning when confirming who or what something is.)
أضداد
misidentify (Means to identify incorrectly; the opposite of recognising accurately.)
