"To the best of my knowledge" nghĩa là gì?

Prince Jackson is in the news again. Less than a week after Michael Jackson's Dermatologist died, the latest rumor suggests Prince wants a paternity test to learn if Dr. Arnold Klein is his real biological father. Photo credit: starpulse.

'To the best of my knowledge' = as far as I know /as I understand it nghĩa là theo như tôi biết (according to the information available to one).

Ví dụ
I still can’t answer [on the question of paternity] absolutely one way or another. I once donated to the sperm bank (ngân hàng tinh trùng). To the best of my knowledge I am not the father.

To the best of my knowledge, in the 12 years since the invasion (xâm lược) of your country, its catastrophic (thảm khốc, thê thảm) occupation, and the chaos (hỗn loạn) that has ensued (xảy ra sau đó), no American has explicitly apologized on behalf of the United States, its governmental leaders, its military, its mercenary (hám lợi, vụ lợi) contractors, its journalists and media, its scholars and universities, its business people and middle classes, its citizens. Too little, too late? You decide.

But neither side, to the best of my knowledge — and for some of this period I was in a position to know—ever approached the point of actually using nuclear weapons in a specific crisis between the two superpowers. Except for the Cuban missile crisis of 1962, when a Soviet combat division (sư đoàn chiến đấu) was initially authorized to use its nuclear weapons to defend itself, neither side approached their use, either against each other or in wars against non-nuclear third countries.
