Latin Peeps Represent!

Folks who know from Latin:

I know that the Italian word 'cognoscenti' is derived from the Latin word cognosco. However, I've got a sense that 'cognoscenti' itself is also Latin. Is it? If not, what would the appropriate Latin word be for 'enlightened ones?'

"Cognoscentes" sounds about right actually.
