common knowledge
common knowledge n. something that most people know, have learned, or accept as the truth from experience or everyday life, rather than from research or study. [Originally after Hellenistic Greek κοιναὶ ἐννοίαι general ideas (compare quot. 1578, where the English translation has ἀνοίας ‘follies’ in place of ἐννοίας ‘ideas’, presumably a typographical error).]
