From the word’s history
From Latin trivia, plural of trivium 'place where three roads meet'; later 'anything commonplace'.
源自拉丁文 trivium「三條路交會處」的複數,後指平凡小事。
Picture lots of tiny, scattered facts — the kind that are fun to know but too small to matter much: who won a game years ago, a star's middle name, an odd date in history.
