Plebs is short for plebians, derived from the period ofthe Ancient Romans. The plebeians were the generalbody of Roman citizens and those who wereprivileged were labeled patricians.

Plebs是plebians一詞的簡寫形式，源于古羅馬時期。Plebians指古羅馬時期的普通民眾，比他們身份更高貴的被稱為patricians(貴族)。

Nowadays, plebs is one associated with those in the lower class. They were often defined asmembers of a low-born, despised social class and a commoner, while many people whoconsider themselves modern-day patricians often look down and mock them.
