			Grokking can also be used when the double empathy problem between the speaker and the listener is too great to convey the knowledge.

			Allistic Person: "How can you tell that person we just met is Autistic?"
			Autistic Person Responding: "I just grok it."

Grok /ɡräk/ verb

To understand the subject on a level that cannot be effectively communicated with words.

To be in a state of knowing and awareness of the subject that is beyond translation.

Grok is used in Autistic circles because Special Interests, Pattern Recognition, Hyper and Hypo senses, and other Neurodivergent traits and experiences can give an Autistic person profound insights that are experienced and known but nearly impossible to communicate effectively to others.

When an Autistic person says they "gork it" a way to interpret this is the Autistic person saying "I have certainty and understanding but if you ask me to explain it, it may take a profound amount of time to explain it, if it is even possible to do so."
