Note
A regular plural built on a compound: the -s goes at the very end, after -person, never inside the word. It is the gender-neutral counterpart to spokesmen and spokeswomen, so it suits contexts where the speakers are mixed or unspecified. Because each spokesperson speaks for someone else, the plural often signals several parties being represented, as when rival campaigns or agencies each send their own.
