laypeople

Laypeople are individuals who do not have specialized knowledge or training in a particular area, such as medicine, law, or science. They are everyday people without professional expertise in a specific field. The term is often used to distinguish between experts or specialists and those without specialized education or experience. For example, a doctor might explain medical information to a layperson to ensure understanding. Essentially, laypeople are non-professionals or general members of the public, making decisions or understanding topics without advanced technical knowledge.
