[1913 Webster]
Syn: To discern; distinguish; observe; see; feel; know;
understand.
Usage: To Perceive, Discern. To perceive a thing is to
apprehend it as presented to the senses or the
intellect; to discern is to mark differences, or to
see a thing as distinguished from others around it. We
may perceive two persons afar off without being able
to discern whether they are men or women. Hence,
discern is often used of an act of the senses or the
mind involving close, discriminating, analytical
attention. We perceive that which is clear or obvious;
we discern that which requires much attention to get
an idea of it. "We perceive light, darkness, colors,
or the truth or falsehood of anything. We discern
characters, motives, the tendency and consequences of
actions, etc." --Crabb.
