Abstract: The paper begins with analysis of current definitions of tacit knowledge argument, summarized two types of tacit knowledge: knowledge has not yet been formalized and can not be formalized, pointed out the reasons: current technical methods can not formalize tacit knowledge because of not been innovated yet; nature of tacit knowledge. Basing on recalling the Polanyi tacit knowledge and introducing Collins & Kusch's “the Shape of Actions”, researched tacit knowledge "possibility" by analyzing the case and theory, proposed a way for understanding tacit knowledge, argued that tacit knowledge resides “in the head” of people, embodied by the behavior in specific situation, essential attributes include embodiment, contextualization, practice process. Tacit knowledge is difficult to be completely codified and formalized representation.
