Neither sentence is entirely correct, but with a few adjustments, they can be fixed. Here’s how: Corrected Version 1: "The thought may constitute an obstacle that hinders many people's growth." Explanation: "constitute" vs. "constituted": Use the base form "constitute" because "may" requires the verb that follows to be in its base form. "May constituted" is incorrect; it should be "may constitute." "people's" vs. "peoples'": "people's" is correct when referring to the growth of many individuals (general usage). "peoples'" refers to multiple distinct groups or nations (e.g., "the world's peoples"), which isn't what you intend here. Final Corrected Sentence: "The thought may constitute an obstacle that hinders many people's growth." Let me know if you’d like more clarification or examples! 😊

The correct sentence is: The thought may constitute an obstacle that hinders many people's growth. Explanation: 1. "Constitute" is correct (not "constituted") because "may" requires the base form of the verb. 2. "People's" (with the apostrophe before the "s") is correct because it indicates possession: the growth of many people. 3. "Peoples'" (apostrophe after "s") would be used if referring to multiple groups of people, such as "the growth of many distinct peoples," which is not the intended meaning here.

"people's" is the word you're looking for. But the rest of the sentence needs help also.
