例句:
There was enmity between the two persons.
There were so many people.

那“三个人”到底怎么表达?

同学们翻译英语句子时一定要看当时的语境,如果句子是强调个人时,三个人就是three persons;如果句子强调整体的时候,要翻译为three people的。
然后people也是有复数的形式,但复数形式的话就不能翻译为 ”人“ 了哟。
作为 “人”的时候,people就已经是复数形式了所以不用再加s了;而people能加s的时候就是代表 “民族“ 的时候,此时peoples就可以加上s的。

例句:
Three people came to see you yesterday.
