Is there such a collocation as "life wisdom"?
If no, what is a natural way of expressing this meaning?
Thanks! |

In general, we understand wisdom to come from life and experience. That's what makes it different from intelligence.
So "life wisdom" would be a bit unnecessary in most contexts.
Hope helps,
Ian
