People is or People are.

Dear all members:


I found this sentence in an English course book
' There not enough people to support three cinemas, but there's enough for one'.

My question is ; can we use both is and are with people?
I mean is't considered single and plural?

Thanks in abvance

Hi,

Interesting question!

I would personally use 'are', rather than 'is'. However, I am no expert!

Best wishes,

Iain.

"People" is the plural of "person" : People are.
