the populace of [a place]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes use "populace" in very casual speech where "people" or "public" sounds more natural. "Populace" is more formal and is common in news or political discussion. It is almost never used for animals, and it is usually singular and uncountable (you rarely say "populaces").
