Why do people say persons instead of people?

English
1 answer:
ser-zykov [4K]3 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

I don't think that people say 'persons', because that's grammatically incorrect. But sometimes you would see the word 'person', because 'person' points to one person(Singular), and people points to mutiple people(Plural).

I hope this helps:D
