Find words related to Hoi Polloi

Question

The idea is to find an English word (S Y N O N Y M or antonym) related to the word –

Hoi Polloi (sustantivo) and then write a simple sentence in English and Spanish for that word.

Or an unusual use of the word.

Examples:

In my opinion most elected "professional" politicians in most countries are ignoring the hoi polloi.

En mi opinión la mayoría de los políticos electos "profesionales" en la mayoría de los países están ignorando la plebe.

Pictures are a good idea.

We are currently looking for a corrector for the Spanish sentences. If you are interested, please send me a PM. In the meantime, please help each other as you are able.

Answer 5

Karl Marx trató de empoderar el proletariado, pero el mejor comentario sobre los resultados de sus esfuerzos que he visto nunca es uno de Edward O. Wilson, quien estudió las hormigas, y quien dijo "Era una teoría buena, pero se la refirió a la especia fue aplicada a la especie incorrecta.
