PEOPLE, PERSONS, FOLK, FOLKSPeople употребляется в тех случаях, когда речь идет о большом количестве людей, среди которых нельзя или нет необходимости выделять отдельные, индивидуальные лица: most people like music; there are many people here. Persons имеет в виду отдельных лиц, число которых является обычно незначительным: a few persons have called this morning; there are two or three persons in the room. Folk и folks в значении 'люди' имеют ярко выраженную разговорную окраску, например: folks say, different folk have different views. Folk в этом значении употребляется, главным образом, в словосочетаниях типа country folk 'сельские жители', rich folk 'богачи', town folk 'городские жители', old folk 'старики'. Folks наряду с этим означает 'родня': one's folks, 'родители': one's old folks. Folk в значении 'народ' сохранилось в современном языке в атрибутивном употреблении в сочетаниях типа folk music, folk dance, folk tale.Difficulties of the English language (lexical reference) English-Russian dictionary > folks
