适合你水平的解释:

This phrase means 'many people know'. Use it when you talk about facts that everyone knows.
It is a common way to say something is 'common knowledge'. You use it when you want to confirm that a piece of information is not a secret.
This collocation describes information that has reached a wide audience. It is neutral and works in both formal and informal settings, provided you are discussing facts rather than personal fame.
The phrase functions as a state-of-being descriptor for public information. It is frequently employed in journalistic or academic contexts to establish the consensus status of a specific topic or event.
Syntactically, it utilizes the passive-stative construction to denote the diffusion of information across a social stratum. It serves as a pragmatic marker of shared epistemic ground between the speaker and the audience.
This expression exemplifies the Japanese tendency toward collective epistemic validation. By framing knowledge as 'widely known,' the speaker invokes a social consensus, effectively neutralizing potential dissent by grounding the assertion in the public sphere.
