What is the collective noun of voices - battle or babble?

The collective noun for voices is chorus.

While "battle" and "babble" can describe the sound of multiple voices, they are not technically collective nouns.

Here's why:

* Battle: implies conflict or discord, not a unified group.

* Babble: suggests incoherent noise, not a structured collection.

Chorus: specifically refers to a group of voices singing or speaking together, making it the most accurate collective noun for voices.
