noun
self-respect; pride; sense of dignity
Rare and old-fashioned as a standalone meaning; it is safer to recognize it in fixed or explanatory contexts where 見識 means pride, dignity, or a sense of self-respect rather than analytical judgment.
「見識を張る」の見識は、自尊心や気位に近い意味で使われる。
In the expression 見識を張る, 見識 is used with a meaning close to self-respect or pride.
