Yes, you should try hard and come up with another verb.
Recall that was precisely Chomsky's point.
"Grice has used the verb 'know' in such a way, that I am forced NOT to use
it."
Instead, in the John Locke lectures, at Oxford -- where he criticised Grice
for half an hour in the 3rd one -- he proposes
'cognise'
I cognise ------------ We cognise
You cognise ------- Ye cognise
He, She, It, cognises -- They cognise.
Grice commented, "Chomsky's attempt was futile".
