What is another word for one of the little people?
Pronunciation: [wˈɒn ɒvðə lˈɪtə͡l pˈiːpə͡l] (IPA) 
When we talk about someone who is "one of the little people," we are often referring to someone who is less powerful or important in a given situation. However, there are many different ways to describe such a person without using this potentially dismissive phrase. Some possible synonyms include "average Joe," "ordinary person," "rank-and-file member," "commoner," "regular guy/gal," "nonentity," and "small fry." Each of these phrases may be more or less fitting depending on the context in which they are used, but all of them avoid the potentially negative connotations of "one of the little people".
