Definition
熟悉 (shú xi) means 'to be familiar with' — you know something or someone well through experience or study. It is deeper than 认识 (rèn shi 'know/recognize a person') and 认得 (rèn de 'recognize by sight'), which are more about knowing someone exists or recognizing them. 熟悉 implies comfortable, detailed knowledge.
