Example of Gentilic Adjectives

The Gentile adjectives are those used to express the origin of people or of any object, whether its origin is for example a country, a city, a province, a continent or any other place.

Although Gentile adjectives are not used to indicate the place where people live, They can also be used in the case of someone who lives somewhere for a long time and is proud to belong to that entity.

The Gentilic adjectives can take the value of a noun, that is, they can be used to refer to a person by naming only their gentilicio, that is, it is correct to say "the European" instead of saying "the person who is originally of Europe".

The gentilic adjectives are written with lowercase and They are classified into ordinary and particular.

Examples of ordinary gentile adjective endings: a, aco, aín, an, anus, ario, disgust, eco, enco, eno, ense, eño, eo, ero, is, esco, í, iego, ino, isco, ita, or, ol, ota, uco uz (also its feminine variants).
