people的用法2：people与定冠词the连用时,其含义为“人民(群众)”,指一个国家的或全世界的人民或者与统治阶级相对的“人民”,没有复数形式。
people的用法3：people还可作“民族,种族”“被共同文化联合在一起的集体”解,是可数名词,“一个民族”是a/one people,多个民族时用其复数形式peoples。其前有a, one或every等词修饰时,谓语动词多用单数形式。用it或itself指代, people在句中作主语时,谓语动词用单数或复数均可,但以用复数者居多。

关于Person和people的困惑
My full name is Yaciel Edelio Tellez Toledo. I comefrom Cuba.
我的全名是Yaciel Edelio Tellez Toledo，我来自古巴。
I wrote to you because I am in doubt with thecorrect use of 'person' and 'people'.
我写信来是因为我对person和people的正确用法有怀疑。
That was my question - because I know that 'person'and 'people' both are nouns and I would like to knowwhen I'm going to use 'person' or 'people'.
我的问题就是这个——因为我知道person和people两个都是名词，我想知道应该什么时候用person什么时候用people。
Hi Yaciel and thank you for your question, there are several points to make here.
你好Yaciel。感谢来信询问，这里要说几点：
The first one is to do with singular and plural nouns, I'm sure you know that most nouns inEnglish are made plural by putting an s on the end, so for example, girl – girls, boy – boys.
第一点跟名词的单复形式有关。你肯定知道在英语中，大多数名词变复数只需在词尾加上s，例如，girl –girls, boy – boys。
But some nouns have irregular plurals, for example child – children.
但是有些名词属于不规则名词，如：child——children。
And 'person' is one of those nouns that has an irregular plural.
而person就是这类词非规则名词中的一个。
'People' is in fact the plural form of person.
People实际上是person的复数形式。
So for example we talk about one person and two people.
例如，我们会说一个人——one person和两个人——two people。
So in normal everyday speech you will hear people talking about 'many people', 'there were a lotof people at the concert', for example.
那在平时的聊天中，你会听到人们这样说，“many people”——许多人，“音乐会上有很多人”，例如。
However it becomes slightly more complicated because sometimes you do see the word'persons'.
但是，现在好像变得有点复杂了，因为你有时候会看见，persons这个词。
For example if you're in a lift or elevator you might see the sign 'Four persons only'.
例如，假如你在电梯(lift/elevator)里，你或许会看见这样的标志“Four persons only(只能载四个人)”
And sometimes if you're listening to the news, to news reports you may hear news reportstalking about persons.
有时候在听新闻的时候，你也许会听见新闻里用到这个词“persons”.
So for example 4 persons were injured in the accident, or police are looking for 5 persons.
例如，“四个人(4 persons)在事故中受伤”或者“警察正在寻找5个失踪的人”。
Persons is normally a more formal use, a more formal plural form.
persons是更正式的person的复数形式，通常情况下用于更正式的场合。
It gets slightly more complicated when you find the word peoples.
有时候大家会遇到peoples这个词，情况又更复杂一点。
People can be used to mean a nationality – all of the people of one country – so for example'the people of Cuba'.
people可以指国民——一个国家的人民，例如，the people of Cuba——古巴人民。
And when you're talking about a group of nationalities you may find the word 'peoples', forexample, 'the peoples of South America'.
但是如果说的是很多国家的国民，那就会变成the peoples of South America——南美洲的所有民族。
So that's another slightly more complicated and not so common use of the word 'peoples'.
这稍微有点复杂——是单词peoples的一种不怎么常见的用法。
Finally you may find the word 'person' attached to a number.
最后你会发现单词person总是跟数字同时出现。
For example 'a two-person car', 'a three-person room'.
例如，只供两人坐的车，或是‘三人间’。
This is where 'person' is being used to describe the noun.
这是person用来修饰/说明名词的情况。
'2 – person' is the adjective describing 'car' and as you know we don't put an 's' on anadjective.
‘2 – person'是个形容词来修饰car。大家都知道，我们不会在形容词前面加s。
So far example we talk about a 'two-week holiday' not a 'two-weeks holiday' or a 'three-yearcourse' not 'a three-years course'.
例如，我们会说，two-week holiday(为期两周的假期)而不是‘two-weeks holiday'，又或者‘three-yearcourse'(为期三年的课程) 而不是‘a three-years course'
So hear we use 'two-person car'.
所以大家听好了，我们用的是‘two-person car'(供两人坐的车)。
So in summary, normally you find 'people' as the plural form of 'person' – one person, threepeople.
那总结一下就是，通常情况下，people是person的复数形式：一个人是one person，三个人是threepeople。
Sometimes you'll find people used to describe the nationality so you'll find 'peoples' todescribe different nationalities and sometimes you'll find the word 'persons' in more formalstyles of writing or in signs for example.
有时候你会发现people是国民的意思，而不同国家的国民放在一起就叫做peoples(各国国民，国民的复数)，有时候你会发现persons被用在更正式的文体(例如标语)。
I hope that answers your question.
希望以上是你要的答案。
