My own mother refused to let me use the word 'oblong' instead of 'rectangle'. Which is just odd, to be honest.
What stuff do you think is common?

commonMy parents told me that plants with ostentatious flowers
were common. Also piano concertos were common. Non common plants included all plants without flowers and music that was uncommon included string quartets.
