Usage Note

Común carries two distinct senses: 'frequent / ordinary' (un error común = 'a common mistake') and 'shared / held in common' (interés común = 'shared interest'). It does not change form for gender, only for number (comunes). En común is a high-frequency phrase meaning 'in common', as in tenemos mucho en común.
