Voice from the street

[taked4700]

Hi,

To mean common people's opinions, which is the most idiomatic?

1. Voice from the street
2. Voices from the street
3. Voice from the streets
4. Voices from the streets
5. none of these

I guess 2 would be the most idiomatic.

Thanks in advance.

#2 is OK.

Thank you, Bhaisahab.
I think you mean that #2 is grammatical but not the most idiomatic.

Do you think all of 1 to 4 are idiomatic?

Or 1 is the most idiomatic?

Thanks in advance.

#2 is grammatical and the most idiomatic.

You could also use voice(s) of the street.

I would only use "voice of the street" there. There is a similar phrase: "the word on the street", though that is more akin to "rumour" than "popular opinion".

The singular's more likely, but the plural is possible if the views are fragmented IMO.
