Trivia

Trivia refers to bits of information or facts that are interesting, obscure, or surprising, often concerning various topics such as history, entertainment, science, and popular culture. These facts are usually not widely known or are considered inconsequential, hence the term “trivia.” The word is derived from the Latin “trivium,” meaning “the place where three roads meet,” which was used to refer to commonplace or mundane matters. In contemporary contexts, trivia is often associated with games, quizzes, and competitions where participants answer questions based on general knowledge. Trivia can serve both educational and entertainment purposes, engaging people in a fun way while encouraging the sharing of knowledge.
