When the fuel in an engine cylinder ignites prematurely or unevenly to cause power fluctuations and a "knocking" sound. usually occurs when an engine is very how or improperly timed.
Engine knocking occurs in a vehicle when there are misfires in the spark plug ignition causing an air/fuel mixture to explode outside the envelope of the normal combustion front. This condition could be very damaging to an engine if not checked by a mechanic.

If it's knocking when accelerating, the engine could be starving for the correct octane fuel ... try the mid-grade or premium fuel and see if it still occurs. Could also be that the timing belt needs to be adjusted/replaced. If the knocking sounds like metal on metal, chances are you are in for a bigger bill for a possible engine rebuild. At any rate, have it checked out by a mechanic soon.
