GRAMMAR INCORRECT TO CORRECT
Incorrect: She has spent most of her life helping the poors.
Correct: She has spent most of her life helping the poor.
Grammar: Instead of saying 'poor people' we often say 'the poor', using the adjective as a noun. Adjectives used as nouns (and -ed forms used as nouns) do not take a plural ending: 'He is collecting money for the blind.' 'The injured have been taken to hospital.'
