Is it possible to be so knowledgeable about all sorts of things?
That's trivia. Trivia is, by definition, not knowledge.TheStatutoryApe said:Have you watched Jeopardy?

"All-round knowledge" refers to having a broad and comprehensive understanding of a wide range of topics and subjects, rather than being an expert in just one specific area.
It is highly unlikely for someone to have complete and perfect knowledge in all areas, as knowledge is constantly evolving and expanding. However, it is possible for someone to have a well-rounded and extensive understanding of many different subjects.
Education can certainly contribute to someone's all-round knowledge, as it exposes them to various subjects and helps develop critical thinking skills. However, true all-round knowledge also requires curiosity, self-learning, and continuous learning throughout life.
Having all-round knowledge can help individuals make informed decisions and have a better understanding of the world around them. It can also aid in problem-solving, creativity, and adaptability.
One can strive for all-round knowledge by actively seeking out new information and learning opportunities, staying curious and open-minded, and continuously expanding their knowledge in various areas. Engaging in discussions, reading, and traveling can also help broaden one's perspective and understanding of different subjects.
