What is the verb we use that describes what we do when we get some new knowledge?

It seems to me that we «acquire/obtain/gain knowledge» but then such verbs have a strong sense of activeness while sometimes we just passively know things.

In the collocations ‘acquire knowledge’ and ‘gain knowledge’, the connotation of ‘making an effort to’ is not all that strong: bleaching has taken place
. ‘Wrest’ would be used to show a real battle, with the knowledge hard-won; ‘amass’ might be used to show a steady compilation.

But acquire knowledge by osmosis is an expression aimed at showing the near-accidental acquisition of knowledge as one lives one’s normal life.

ODO has:

osmosis mass noun …

2 The process of gradual or unconscious assimilation of ideas,
knowledge, etc.

‘by some strange political osmosis, private reputations became public’

‘During my time as a model, I learned almost through osmosis because I dealt with people on an ongoing basis,’ she said.

… when you go into a clinic and acquire knowledge by osmosis, ...’

Are you looking for assimilate? This answers your question written in bold.

Assimilate

take in and understand fully (information or ideas)

This is what you do when you get some new knowledge. You assimilate it before you finally store it in your memory.

e.g. I was speechless, still trying to assimilate the enormity of what he’d told me.

Consider

Absorb

TFD: 5. To learn; acquire: «Matisse absorbed the lesson and added to it a new language of color»

This is often used in context of early human development, particularly in the Montessori philosophy:

One of Maria Montessori’s most important and fundamental discoveries was what she called “the absorbent mind.” During the first six years of life, children have a very different way of learning than adults. At this age, children have sponge-like brains; they are able to soak up vast amounts of information from their environment. And they do so effortlessly, continuously, and indiscriminately.
