“People” is an odd word, because it’s used as both the plural of “person” (
since “persons” has fallen out of fashion) and the singular of “peoples”, wh
ere “a people” is a cultural or ethnic group.
“There is many people” is wrong either way, because “many” means there’s a
plural so it has to be “are many”. But you can say “There are many people”,
where you mean lots of individuals, and “There are many peoples”, where you me
an lots of cultural or ethnic groups of individuals.
我覺得這篇講的很清楚
可以看一下
但是答案是are沒錯 相信直覺
※ 引述《ParkChanWook (卡芙卡的狗)》之銘言
: 1.There is so many people
: 2.There are so many people
: 哪個是對的
: 我第一直覺是2
: 但people不是不可數嗎
