Explanation and Etymology - (常識) jyoushiki
常識 (じょうしき) It is a Japanese word composed of two kanjis: 常 (jou) which means "common" or "habitual" and 識 (shiki) which means "knowledge" or "sense". Therefore, the general meaning of the word is "common sense" or "common knowledge". The origin of the word dates back to the Edo period (1603-1868), when Japan was isolated from the rest of the world and the Japanese culture developed uniquely. During this period, the word 常識 was used to refer to social norms and values that were considered common and acceptable by Japanese society. Nowadays, the word 常識 is widely used in the Japanese language to refer to knowledge and behaviors that are considered obvious and expected in a given situation or context. For example, having common sense of not talking loudly in a silent environment is considered 常識.How to Write in Japanese - (常識) jyoushiki
