No. Although both <span>people </span><span>and </span>peoples<span> are grammatically correct, they cannot be used interchangeably because they have different meanings.</span>

<span>Case 1: When you use it in the sense of </span>one people, many peoples:
<span>Here, </span>people<span> (singular) means a group of human beings belonging to a particular race/ethnicity. The plural of such groups is called </span>peoples.
<span>E.g. </span>
<span>The different peoples of the world have very diverse traditions.</span><span>The Ukrainians are a nice people.</span>
<span>Case 2: When you use it in the sense of </span>one person, many people:
<span>Here, </span>people<span> means a group of persons. This is the regular and most common usage of the word </span>people.
<span>E.g. </span>
<span>There are more than a billion people in India</span>

Freewriting and looping is part of the:
pantera1 [17]

The correct answer is A. Prewriting stage of the writing process

Explanation:

The prewriting stage is the first stage in writing that involves generating ideas for writing, selecting the topic and main idea, and organizing the content of a text. This stage includes multiple strategies such as brainstorming, outlining, prewriting, and looping.

In the freewriting strategy, the writer lets his/her thoughts flow naturally to generate ideas about a topic by writing for a specific time without stopping or focusing on grammar, order, or connections, which is useful to have fresh ideas before writing the text. Similarly, in looping the writer writes freely but he/she focuses on a specific idea, which is selected from the text he/she wrote using the freewriting strategy. This means both strategies help writers to generate ideas before writing and therefore they belong to the prewriting stage.
