person Explanation: A "fő" többesszámban egész egyszerűen "people", de szövegkörnyezettől függően lehet konkretizálni, pl. employees. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 9 perc (2012-03-24 08:43:19 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- helyesen: "többes számban" -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 15 perc (2012-03-24 08:49:00 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- A person többes száma lehet "persons" is, de ezt ritkább, formálisabb. "Though persons survives, it does so largely in formal or legal contexts (“Killed by person or persons unknown”, “This taxi is licensed to hold four persons”) and often seems awkward and old-fashioned. Where it survives it emphasises that each member of a group is being considered as an individual: “The nearest persons they can vent their feelings on are the ball boys and girls”, “Eight persons shared a single room”. From the evidence, it seems that the trend towards using people instead of persons is accelerating and that it may not be so long before persons vanishes from the language except in certain set phrases." http://www.worldwidewords.org/articles/people.htm |

People Explanation: Angliában slang-ként használják a pax kifejezést is, de inkább csak belső céges felhasználásra, írhattok még persons, employees stb kifejezéseket is. |
