someones

Someones is a term that rarely appears in standard English and is not listed as a regular plural of someone. The pronoun someone is singular, used to refer to an unspecified person. When referring to more than one person, English style guides recommend alternatives such as some people, several individuals, or a number of people. The form someones is usually avoided in formal writing and is more commonly encountered only in informal or erroneous usage.

In rare cases, Someones may be a proper noun, such as a surname or a fictional character’s name. In those cases it is capitalized and treated as a name rather than a regular word. Because it is uncommon, its recognition depends on context and audience.

Common errors include treating someones as the plural of someone or using it where someone's is required. For example: Correct: Some people arrived; incorrect: Someones arrived. The possessive of someone is someone's, not someones. If you need a plural pronoun, prefer some people or several individuals. In most contexts, avoiding the term altogether and using a clearer construction reduces ambiguity.

Summary: Someones is not a standard plural or possessive form in everyday English and is typically recognized only as a proper noun in limited circumstances. For ordinary usage, replace it with some people or a similar plural construction.
