The idiom "elephant in the room" is believed to have originated in the 19th century. It is thought to have been inspired by a fable by Ivan Krylov, in which a man is so focused on examining small details that he fails to notice an elephant standing in the room. The phrase is used to describe an obvious problem or issue that everyone is aware of but no one wants to talk about.
