GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

Social Sciences - Education / Pedagogy / High school
English term or phrase: commons
Kontext: en high school-tjej går in på sin skola.

"I went past the commons and made my way through the crowds of students clogging up the halls."

Vad jag förstår är commons ett fritids-/gemenskapsutrymme som i Sverige kanske delvis motsvaras av "kafeterian" eller liknande.

Någon som har förslag på en bättre översättning? :)
