perspectives
- 1Plural of perspective.

Good fiction lets readers inhabit perspectives very different from their own.
Note
A regular -s plural, used wherever perspective is something you can count: viewpoints, outlooks, vistas. In an older, now dated usage it could also name the pictures themselves, so perspectives were artworks drawn to show depth. When the word means the drawing technique or the ability to weigh things in proportion, it typically behaves as an uncountable noun and resists the plural.
