There is little difference between 懂得&懂.
理解比较书面化,一般不在口头用;了解是对事物的初步接触和认识,在广东话中也当“明白”讲;
懂,是弄明白understand的意思;懂得,基本懂这个意思更书面的表达,或者在后面要跟副词等其他描述懂这个词的情况下。在中文,得,是后面要跟形容词、副词的一个标志。
理解 vs. 了解
理解 is associated with reasoning; not only is the surface information received, but also what is underneath, like the seriousness of the situation or the motive. If I have to translate 我无法理解 into English, I'd go for “It's beyond my comprehension.”
