I suppose that if you hear the phrase "human condition", you think of the essence of the human existence.

For example,

""If youth only knew; if age only could." That proverb points out the two essential weaknesses of our human condition."

In this context, the "human condition" precisely means that.
Is this right?

And if there are any example where "human condition" conveys another meaning, could you please give it to me?




Thank you in advance!!!

Hi M-K-G. That's correct - "the human condition" means the nature of existence that all of us share. I don't know of any other meaning for this phrase.
