Dhawq, literally tasting, conveys immediacy of experience. It marks a contrast with purely descriptive knowledge without rendering philological analysis or reason irrelevant.
Distinctions and context
The experience claimed by an author is distinct from a later reader’s reception of the report. An account of tasting cannot, by itself, reproduce the event it describes.
Research question
Is taste invoked as a personal warrant or as a condition of understanding?
