Of equal importance is using the correct form when identifying or talking about a nationality and spelling the nationality correctly. There are 5 groups of adjectival endings which are used to form nationalities from country names but no easy rules that tell you what ending to use with which country. In other words the ending on the country name does not determine necessarily the adjectival form of the nationality. Therefore it is best to memorise the country name and nationality together. STUDY TIPS Knowing the nationalities of countries and using them correctly is helpful in the Speaking section of the IELTS test. During the test you will have the opportunity to talk about your country the people and possibly where you have travelled or plan to travel so that you can speak about other countries and identify other nationalities. The groups are - i an -ese -i -ish -ic and a group that includes exceptions for example Philippines - Filipino. The most common form - i an also constitutes the largest group of adjectives for example Colombia - Colombian ka lAmbian Mexico - Mexican ZmsksikanZ. The noun used to describe the person from these countries is the same as the adjective. Nationalities are always capitalised in English. o - INSEARCH 0 ậ TECHNOLOGY SYDNEY Page 1 of 2 abcasiapacifc com studyenglish STUDY ENGLISH IELTS PREPARATION EXAMPLES OF COUNTRIES AND NATIONALITIES Practise the pronunciation of these nationalities which are grouped according to their adjectival endings -ese Japan -Japanese - i an Australia - Australian Korea - Korean -i Bangladesh -Bangladeshi -ish Finland -Finnish Others Philippines -Filipino France -French Portugal -Portuguese .
