normalcies
States of ordinariness
Normalcies is the plural of normalcy—the state of being normal or usual.
The word appears when discussing multiple instances or types of ordinary conditions: We crave the small normalcies of daily life.
Different cultures have different normalcies.
Normalcy itself is sometimes criticized as an awkward alternative to normality, though both are standard.
