In the know (5)

I think it could be either:

aware

hipto

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">in the know</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for aware that I've seen before include "Acquainted with or conscious of" , "Acquainted with or mindful of" , "Having knowledge or realisation" , "Cognizant" , "Attentive" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post, the Universal, The Star Tribune, the USA Today, the Newsday, the Penny Press, the LA Times, the King Feature Syndicate, The Wall Street Journal, The Mirror and The New York Times.
