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), the same idea as the word recognize and the verb 'know'. So in identification, recognition is the act of 'knowing' someone or something from before and saying what it is.
