Andamanese
English
Usage notes
As with other nationalities formed with -ese, the countable singular noun in reference to a person (as in "I am an Andamanese", "writing about Andamanese cuisine as an Andamanese") is uncommon and often taken as incorrect. In its place, the adjective is used, by itself (as in "I am Andamanese") or with a word like person, man, or woman ("writing about Andamanese cuisine as an Andamanese person").
Adjective
Andamanese (not comparable)
- Of or relating to the Andaman Islands.
- Of or relating to the Andamanese language family.
Translations
