Among.

The word you are looking for is "among".

The only people who say "amongst" are dumb people trying to sound smart.

Before you or anyone else gets mad at me, just know that I'm trying to help you.

In both speech and writing, among and amongst are interchangeable. Both are grammatically correct and mean the same thing. However, amongst is often considered old-fashioned or pretentious in American English, so you may want to avoid it.
