Thread Name: BS: The adjective 'Scotch'
Subject: RE: BS: The adjective 'Scotch'
"I'm trying to think of any other country where the adjective for a nationality is different from the term for a native - Germans are German, Americans are American, English are English, Irish are Irish. The only other exception I can think of is Argentinia, where the Argentinians live."
Surely you don't need to look too far as peple from Wales are Welsh :-) Also there is the Swiss!
