How to use "In the know" in context?
People who are "in the know" usually have some degree of insider knowledge, something they know that others don't. This knowledge can come from personal experience, family history, or a conversation with a trusted friend. When you are "in the know," you are aware of what is happening in your community, at work, or in the world at large. You know what's going on before it becomes publicly known.
Being "in the know" can be a powerful thing. It can give you a competitive edge, help you navigate through urban traffic, or provide you with insider information before it's published.
