A people is a group of persons. So, if you are referring to a single group, it's "people", multiple groups are "peoples", one entity is a "person", a group of entities being referred to as individuals are "persons".
Just so that everyone knows...
What?
gonk Wouldn't you just say
There are a lot of people.
You are a person.
Yes, you would say that there are a lot of people, but when you are seperating the people out, they become persons.
People in this thread = 6.
Persons in this thread = Rachel, Tsuji, Dark, Slim, Arc, La Belle... (Oh, wait, I'm leaving... So no Tsuji)
See?
