[quote=JABAROOTOO ,10402]No political or historic implications here. Just smply changing the noun to adjective.Germany to GermanFrance to FrenchSpain to SpanishNo hard and fast grammar rules but countries ending in 'ia' will become 'ianAlbania, Arabia, Austrailia, ArgentinaBut you've then got England to EnglishSpain to SpanishTurkey to TurkishChina to ChineseAmerica to AmericanAfrica To AfricanPeru to PeruvianTibet to TibetanGreece to GreekSeems to me the best pronounciation and smooth expression dictates the suffix or variation in spelling.[/quote]
