Some adjectives are worth learning separately e. g. Swiss, Thai, Greek, Dutch,
Cypriot.
Some nationalities have nouns for referring to people, e. g. a Finn, a Swede, a
Turk, a Spaniard, a Dane, a Briton, an Arab. For most nationalities we can
use the adjective as a noun, e. g. a German, an Italian, a Belgian, a Greek, an
African. Some need woman/man/person added to them (you can’t say “a
Dutch”), so if in doubt, use them, e.g. a Dutch man, a French woman.
