Answer 1

acknowledge means a few different things. To acknowledge that there are differences between us, we need to just agree that you and I are different.

A teacher might acknowledge your accomplishment by giving you a good grade, or telling the class you wrote the best paper.

The opposite of acknowledge is to ignore, or to deny something exists.

Like if your boyfriend's mother didn't acknowledge that you were his girlfriend, or that you even had a relationship. You would just want her to acknowledge the fact that you mean something to her son!
