In explanation,I would say that" Bookish knowledge is that type of knowledge we acquire through academic sources which may include books and formal education and it's solely based on theoretical understanding. This simply means that it's just verbal knowledge which might be forgotten easily.

On the other hand, practical knowledge is the type of knowledge we gain through direct personal experiences, practical application . It involves personal observation, interaction with the world and learning from real life situations. This type of knowledge is also gained through experiences such as travel, experimentations, mentorship and problem solving.

It should be understood that knowing is a mere knowledge about a thing but the real knowledge is understanding how that thing works.

Which knowledge (bookish knowledge and practical knowledge) has more impact in our life?

Practical knowledge is more significant in life of humans because of it's emphasis, this is because it stresses on applying knowledge.

Practical knowledge allows the knowledge which you have gained to be put into practice which works better in reinforcing understanding on a subject by performing tasks rather than only comprehend. You can gain further knowledge by practical ,but reading more and more books on something cannot transform into experience.

Yes you can acquire much knowledge through reading of books,or education but experience which is practical provides us with another pathway to accumulate it. Knowledge is based on theory but experience which is practical stands out because it allows exercising things learned in books. It also provides us the opportunity to test and challenge knowledge.

In conclusion, have you wondered why employers ask applicants their experience not just their academic qualifications.

Life is Practical rather than theory as practicing something is the best way to master it

What kind of knowledge does a person gain experience from?

Like I said earlier,life is practical rather than theory. We tend to gain experience from practical knowledge. I am not saying that reading books about something is bad but it will remain theoretical knowledge until someone implements it.

For instance, a real surgeon is one who puts the information learned at medical school into use by operating a patience.Experiencing something is more useful because the world runs differently from information in textbooks. So practical knowledge gives more knowledge when compared with bookish knowledge.💯

Does practical knowledge bring us face to face with life experiences? Express your views on this

Yes practical knowledge brings us face to face with life experiences. It is essential in our everyday lives as it allows us to apply what time we have learned real-world situations. It enables us to solve problems,maake informed decisions and to navigate various challenges effectively.

Whether it's in the workplace,at home ,or in our personal relationship, practical knowledge plays a crucial role in helping us succeed and thrive.
Going further, practical knowledge helps us acquire the real techniques of doing things.
