The correct phrase is "these people." "These people" refers to a plural group of individuals or a collection of persons who are present or being referred to. The word "these" is used to indicate a plural form or to reference multiple items or individuals that are relatively close in proximity or relevance. "This people" would be grammatically incorrect in most contexts because "this" typically refers to a singular item or individual that is close in proximity or relevance. However, "this people" could be valid in specific contexts where "people" is being treated as a singular collective noun representing a particular ethnic or cultural group. read less
