How Recognized
Surface Forms
Morphology
recognition = recognize (semi-transparent) = recognit + ion
The noun 'recognition' is related to 'recognize', but the spelling change and Latin root make the connection less obvious to learners.
Etymology
Recognition comes from parts that mean 'again' (re-) and 'to know' (cognoscere), like the word recognize and the simple verb 'know'. So when someone gets recognition for their work, they are being 'known' and publicly praised for what they did.
