speakers
- 1Plural of speaker.
Native speakers often blend their words together in casual conversation.
The conference invited three guest speakers to address the opening session.
Note
A regular plural that carries every meaning of speaker at once: people who talk or give speeches, loudspeakers and speakerphones, presiding officers of legislatures, and, in the US, books of passages for recitation. The surrounding words do the sorting. Native speakers and guest speakers are people, while the speakers on a desk are devices. In writing, mind the apostrophe: a speaker's notes belong to one, the speakers' lounge to many.
