If Merriam-Webster came to you and said, "We're writing a new dictionary and we don't know what normal means."?

Say the folks at Merriam-Webster were writing out a new dictionary, and when they got to the entry for 'normal', didn't know the meaning...so they asked you to write the entry. The criteria for this entry are as follows:

1. Must be different and distinct from other dictionary entries for the word 'normal'.

2. Cannot merely be a synonym, must take sentence form.

3. Must be a definition of what 'normal' IS, *not* what normal ISN'T (i.e. no, "we're all unique, normal is nonexistent.")



What would your dictionary entry be?If Merriam-Webster came to you and said, "We're writing a new dictionary and we don't know what normal means."?
I guess the 3...it's really hard to define i agree. What's normal today wasn't yesterday and may be tomorrow so I don't even know if there should be a word for that apart from a "narrow-minded" social context!
What is generally considered as common. The behaviour of the majority of people.
