-ian; -ese နှင့် အမည်မရှိ၊ အမှတ်မရှိ
From the list, I find 8 major suffixes, they are:
- -ian (Italian, Norwegian)
- -ean (Chilean, Korean)
- -an (American, Mexican)
- -ese (Chinese, Japanese)
- -er (Icelander, New Zealander)
- -ic (Icelandic, Greenlandic)
- -ish (English, Irish)
- -i (Iraqi, Pakistani)
Looking at the map, we can probably notice some distributive patterns right away. For instance, –ish is mainly used for European nations, –i is for nations in the Middle East, –ic and –er seem to occur only after the word –land, but the others seem to be more random.
Not satisfied with the mere geographical picture, I decided to trace the histories of these suffixes.
Suffix | Origin |
-ian | Latin |
-ean | Latin |
-an | Latin |
-ese | Latin → Italian |
-er | Latin → Germanic |
-ic | Latin → Germanic |
-ish | Germanic |
-i | Arabic |

Chinian, not Chinese?
In an interesting twist on the “Shanghainese” issue, Kevin Keqing Liu at China Daily argues that it’s time to retire “Chinese” in favor of “Chinian”. His reasoning starts this way:
Group I: American, Australian, Austrian, Canadian, German, Italian, Norwegian, Russian…
Group II: Chinese, Congolese, Japanese, Nepalese, Portuguese, Sudanese, Vietnamese…
In the State of Ohio in the United States, what do local residents call themselves? Ohioese? Wrong. Ohioan. In Toronto, Canada, the people there call themselves yes, you guessed it Torontonian. Never Torontonese.
Not enough to make you feel superior should you fall into Group I, or inferior if you unfortunately happen to be in Group II? Let’s look at the Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English, 1978, for the definition of “-ese”: suffix, 1. (the people or language) belonging to (a country); 2. (usually derogatory) literature written in the (stated) style. Examples: Johnsonese; journalese.
Or MSN Encarta Dictionary online: … 3. The style of language of a particular group (disapproving). Example: officialese. [Via Old French -eis; Italian -ese]
He continues the argument:
The English-speaking founding fathers of Singapore were well aware of the subtle significance behind the “-ese” and “-an” distinction, and opted for Singaporean when the nation became independent in 1965.
India has a different story. The Indians stemmed from Europe. Europeans saw Indians as relatives. You wouldn’t want to use harsh descriptions for your relatives, would you?
The same is true of Central and South Americans, who are cousins of North Americans and Mexicans.
You may ask: What about the Portuguese, also Europeans? Well, a few hundred years back, Portugal was a powerful nation warring fiercely with other major European countries for resources in overseas colonies, and was victimized by being hated and looked down upon by their European rivals.
and concludes:
In the 21st century, the world has evolved into an era when racial discrimination is not tolerated. It is time the names in Group II were abolished.
I don’t know the history in detail, but I believe that the development of the derogatory suffix for writing or speaking styles followed, rather than preceded, the use of -ese for adjectival forms of toponyms. That’s what the OED says:
A frequent mod. application of the suffix is to form words designating the diction of certain authors who are accused of writing in a dialect of their own invention; e.g. Johnsonese, Carlylese. On the model of derivatives from authors’ names were formed Americanese, cablese, headlinese, journalese, newspaperese, novelese, officialese, etc.
The earliest citation for this development is from 1898:
1898 F. HARRISON in 19th Cent. June 941 As Mat Arnold said to me..‘Flee Carlylese as the very devil!’ Yes! flee Carlylese, Ruskinese, Meredithese, and every other ese.
1899 Golf Illustr. 14 July 134 American ‘golfese’.
1906 Daily Chron. 2 Aug. 3/2 Deplorable guide-bookese.
As for the story of the affix itself, the OED gives it this way:
forming adjs., is ad. OF. -eis (mod.F. -ois, -ais): — Com. Romanic -ese (It. -ese, Pr., Sp. -es, Pg. -ez):– L. ēnsem. The L. suffix had the sense ‘belonging to, originating in (a place)’, as in hortēnsis, prātēnsis, f. hortus garden, prātum meadow, and in many adjs. f. local names, as Carthāginiēnsis Carthaginian, Athēniēnsis Athenian. Its representatives in the Romanic langs. are still the ordinary means of forming adjs. upon names of countries or places. In Eng. -ese forms derivatives from names of countries (chiefly after Romanic prototypes), as Chinese, Portuguese, Japanese, and from some names of foreign (never English) towns, as Milanese, Viennese, Pekinese, Cantonese. These adjs. may usually be employed as ns., either as names of languages, or as designations of persons; in the latter use they formerly had plurals in -s, but the pl. has now the same form as the sing., the words being taken rather as adjs. used absol. than as proper ns. (From words in -ese used as pl. have arisen in illiterate speech such sing. forms as Chinee, Maltee, Portugee.)
There’s clearly a story to be told about the concentration of -ese derivatives in East Asia, but I don’t think that the story Liu tells is the right one, at least historically.
In sorting -ese and -ian, we need to note that English has other processes for forming adjectives from place names, including -ish (Irish, British, Flemish, Polish, Scottish, Spanish, Swedish), -i (Afghani, Iraqi, Israeli, Kuwaiti, Pakistani) and the motley collection of processes involved in cases like French and Greek.
In this context, we should note that -ish also has a disparaging or belittling tinge in nonce formations, as the OED observes:
In recent colloquial and journalistic use, -ish has become the favourite ending for forming adjs. for the nonce (esp. of a slighting or depreciatory nature) on proper names of persons, places, or things, and even on phrases, e.g. Disraelitish, Heine-ish, Mark Twainish, Micawberish, Miss Martineauish, Queen Annish, Spectator-ish, Tupperish, West Endish; all-over-ish, at-homeish, devil-may-care-ish, how-d’ye-doish, jolly-good-fellowish, merry-go-roundish, out-of-townish, and the like.
This can hardly be because the adjectival forms of toponyms with -ish are themselves generally deprecated.
Reforming English to regularize all adjectival forms of toponyms using -an or -ian would, ironically, align everyone with the usage attributed to George W. Bush in what were (among) the earliest reported “Bushisms”: Grecians, East Timorians, Kosovians. On this line, I guess, you could pitch it as an educational reform to make it easier for schoolchildren to learn standard English, rather than as an exercise in political correctness designed to avoid negative connotations attached to anyone’s morphemes.
But perhaps we’ll see an alternative movement to rescue these morphemes from their historical degradation at the hands of elitist irony: “Say it loud: -ish and proud!”
[Update: Aaron “Dr. Whom” Dinkin asks whether Spaniard uses the same morpheme as words like bastard, canard, mallard, coward, buzzard, drunkard, laggard, sluggard etc.. It does, I believe. ]

The -an, -ian, and -ese suffixes all stem from the Latin adjectival naming system:
-ian or -an, from Latin, –ianus, meaning “native of”, “relating to”, or “belonging to”
-ese, from the Latin, -ensis, meaning “originating in”
Why one nationality got assigned a -ian or -an suffix in the English language, while another got the -ese suffix is either an arbitrary evolution from an earlier form (usually from French), or simply whatever sounded nicer at the time, or maybe a combination of the two. At least, that’s my theory, anyway.
=
-ian; -ese Both suffixes come from a Latin tradition as previously mentioned. Sinensis and Japonensis are neo-Latin words for ‘Chinese’ and ‘Japanese’ found in some botanical names.
The -ian(us) suffix is Latin but appears to be more Late Latin. For example, the Imperial Romans used Dacicus, Macedonicus, Parthicus (Trajanus Parthicus = Roman emperor and conqueror 101-106 A.D.) as epithets for ‘Dacian’, ‘Macedonian’ and ‘Parthian’ rather than Dacianus, Macedonianus, Parthianus etc. .
There is no hard fast rule as to how they were used but generally -ensis was used for smaller places like cities or towns as in Gallia Lugdonensis, a part of ancient Gaul named after the town of Lugdunum (Celtic for ‘Lug’s Fortress’ < Lug the Celtic god of light), the modern French city of Lyon which has -ese in the adjectival form as in “eggs cooked Lyonese style.” But there was also Gallia Aquitania (Aquitanian Gaul) named after the province (or region) of Aquitania in western Gaul (France).

Even these two dictionaries published in modern times when racism is illegal reveal that, clearly, “-ese” here relates to derogation and shows a low opinion of people, to say nothing of centuries ago when the ancient Europeans saw themselves as the centre of the world, and called the countries near the eastern Mediterranean sea “Near East,” the Asian countries west of India “Middle East,” the Asian countries east of India “Far East,” and North America the “New World.”
In ancient times, China’s economy was comparatively developed and it made initial contact with Europe through merchandise trading such as porcelain or china hence the country name China via the Silk Road.
While excited about the unique goods, the arrogant old Europeans felt uneasy with this totally different people from the remote East having a strange physical appearance and inferior culture in their eyes, and laughed at the latter’s difficult languages, ugly attire, and dire foods; therefore they named them in a negative way.
Countries such as Japan, Nepal and Viet Nam resemble China in human physical appearance and culture, and were also victimized.
Why, then, the survival of many Africans such as Egyptian and Tunisian, and Central and South Americans such as Jamaican and Brazilian, as well as some Asians Korean, Malaysian and Indian?
My research indicates that, firstly, when Europeans made initial contact with Koreans and Malaysians, hundreds of years later than with the Chinese, Europe was more civilized and less racist; secondly, by now, Europeans were getting used to the Asian physical appearance and culture and began to accept them; and finally, Europeans happened to like the way the Koreans and Malaysians interacted with Europeans, when both made initial contact.
The inferences can be applied to the Africans whose names end with an “-an.”
The English-speaking founding fathers of Singapore were well aware of the subtle significance behind the “-ese” and “-an” distinction, and opted for Singaporean when the nation became independent in 1965.
India has a different story. The Indians stemmed from Europe. Europeans saw Indians as relatives. You wouldn’t want to use harsh descriptions for your relatives, would you?

The Anglo-Burmese, also known as the Anglo-Burmans, are a community of Eurasians of Burmese and European descent, who emerged as a distinct community through mixed relations (sometimes permanent, sometimes temporary) between the British and other European settlers and the indigenous peoples of Burma from 1826 until 1948 when Burma gained its independence from the United Kingdom.
After the Portuguese and the French, the Dutch also established trade missions in Burma and with them came Armenian settlers, both communities intermarrying with the already established Eurasians or marrying local Burmese people. The VOC (Dutch East India Company) was active in Burma in the 18th century and many Anglo-Burmans of Dutch heritage are descended from the Dutch merchants who settled in the country. Today’s Anglo-Burmese can count a very diverse lineage in their blood.

Myanmar
Myanmar: The advent of the Burmans at Pagan
Another group of Tibeto- Burman speakers, the Burmans, also had become established in the northern dry zone. They were centred on the small settlement of Pagan on the Irrawaddy River. By the mid-9th century, Pagan had emerged as the capital of a powerful kingdom that would unify Myanmar and inaugurate the Burman domination of the country that has continued to the present day.

The word “Japan” is actually not Japanese. It’s rather from Chinese. It is from World War II when people went over to China and heard Chinese people say something similar to “Japan” were saying “Riben” in Mandarin Chinese but somehow someone got confused and used the Cantonese word for Japan “Yat boon”. So being British, they used the Wade-Giles Romanization, where the r sound is turned into a y sound but written with a j. The actually confusion started when someone forgot which to use, Mandarin or Cantonese, so they mixed it up. So, instead of Nihon or Nippon, it became “Japan” which is nowhere close to the original pronunciation from the Japanese language.
All European languages used this British made word, Japan, as is, or a variation, like “Japon” in French.
“Cipangu” is not a Portuguese word, it’s a word made up by Marco Polo, from 13th century Venetian’s Italian, who NEVER visited China, but yet made a ridiculously inaccurate map, which Christopher Columbus was trying to use to steal Japan’s riches, but failed because Columbus NEVER found Japan.
=
The suffixes -ese and -an come from Romance languages, while -ish comes from Germanic languages (including Old English). Those that have other suffixes (eg Iraqi, Filipino, Afrikaner) are generally direct from the native language.
How the suffix is picked is based on a mixture of etymology and what sounds nice. Our word German, for example, came to us through Latin, and as such has a Romance, rather than Germanic, ending.

Burma and the Empire of Kublai Khan
Though the account is mainly known for its wealth of information about the Yuan state and Chinese/Mongolian society and culture, it also contains some information about the empire’s neighbors. Burma is the subject of four chapters (chapters LI-LIV of Book II).
In Polo’s account, Burma appears under the name Mien; this is how the country was called by the Chinese in those days. The kingdom’s capital also bears its Chinese name: Amien. In terms of global history, the Burma of Marco Polo is the Burma of the Bagan kingdom; Amien is the city of Bagan itself.
The book tells the short story of the troubled relations between the two states. Those years were dominated by a war that ended with the defeat and subjugation of Bagan Burma.
Chapter LII of Book II describes the battle that took place at Vochan in the empire’s south. He gives a glimpse of the Burmese military.
It was written that the Mien/Bagan king was able to amass an army of 60,000 footmen and horsemen. Battle elephants played a special role in strategy, and the explorer wrote how the giant creatures frightened the horses of the Mongols but, in turn, were forced to retreat under the assault of archers.

The Book of Tea by Kakuzo Okakura:
… The earliest record of tea in European writing is said to be found in the statement of an Arabian traveller, that after the year 879 the main sources of revenue in Canton were the duties on salt and tea. Marco Polo records the deposition of a Chinese minister of finance in 1285 for his arbitrary augmentation of the tea-taxes. It was at the period of the great discoveries that the European people began to know more about the extreme Orient. At the end of the sixteenth century the Hollanders brought the news that a pleasant drink was made in the East from the leaves of a bush. The travellers Giovanni Batista Ramusio (1559), L. Almeida (1576), Maffeno (1588), Tareira (1610), also mentioned tea. In the last-named year ships of the Dutch East India Company brought the first tea into Europe. It was known in France in 1636, and reached Russia in 1638. England welcomed it in 1650 and spoke of it as “That excellent and by all physicians approved China drink, called by the Chineans Tcha, and by other nations Tay, alias Tee.”

-ese
Let us now turn to the controversial suffix -ese. You could well say that there does not seem to be a pattern geographically. Countries using -ese are scattered everywhere in Asia, Africa, South America, and we also have Portugal in Europe! But my attention turns to Italian when I give this suffix some more thought.
In Italian, -ese is a much more common suffix of nationality than in English. Words that use -ese in Italian but not in English include danese (Danish), finlandese (Finnish), francese (French), inglese (English) and islandese (Icelandic). In fact, -ese (from Latin -ēnsis) is the next most common suffix after the Latin triplet -ian/-ean/-an.
The Third Voyage of Christopher Columbus
It turns out that words ending in -ese in English actually come from Italian. Recalling that Marco Polo and other Italian traders were the first Europeans to reach the Far East, it is therefore no surprise that many Asian countries use -ese. In addition, the countries using -ese in South America are all very close to where Christopher Columbus, himself an Italian, first landed on the continent. But of course, why some countries in Africa and the Americas use the Italian suffix, while others use French or Spanish suffixes is a result of their long and complicated colonial histories.

The Birman, also called the “Sacred Cat of Burma”,[1] is a domestic cat breed. The Birman is a long-haired, colorpointed cat distinguished by a silky coat, deep blue eyes and contrasting white “gloves” on each paw.
The breed name is derived from Birmanie, the French form of Burma. The Birman breed was first recognized in France by the Cat Club de France in 1925, then in England by the Governing Council of the Cat Fancy[2] (GCCF) in 1966 and in United States by the Cat Fanciers’ Association[1] (CFA) in 1967.

Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) and early Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) period, the map of Europe in the same period of the most marked in Latin Chinensis, -sis suffix no clear meaning, familiar Latin friends, such as engaging in biology, medicine should know. Rare by John Sibi De (John Speed) compiled the Atlas (1627-1676), was marked by the English, you can clearly see Chinian, Chinian men, Chinian women, The Chinian Ocean. And when the European powers with artillery knocked on the door to China, the title will have changed!
http://library.ust.hk/info/exhibit/maps-2002/maps-gallery1.html good English friends can see,
English suffix -ese is insulting, -ian (-n) is respected, we all learned English, I do not nonsense, so we are Chinian, from his start respecting yourself! Not to reinvent such words similar to the Cantonese!
Iran 30 years ago, its English name from Persia (persia) to Iran (iran, iranian), they are proud to be called iranian not call themselves iranese.
Beijing is using Pinyin beijing, rather than what Westerners own words before the fight.
English (English) originally were there beside the word dog, why get rid of it?
Japan Japanese also renamed Nipponian, not to mention our China!

The Travels of Marco Polo, by Marco Polo
Chapter li.
Wherein is Related How the King of Mien and Bangala Vowed Vengeance Against the Great Kaan.
But I was forgetting to tell you of a famous battle that was fought in the kingdom of Vochan in the Province of Zardandan, and that ought not to be omitted from our Book. So we will relate all the particulars.
You see, in the year of Christ, 1272,1 the Great Kaan sent a large force into the kingdoms of Carajan and Vochan, to protect them from the ravages of ill-disposed people; and this was before he had sent any of his sons to rule the country, as he did afterwards when he made Sentemur king there, the son of a son of his who was deceased.
Now there was a certain king, called the king of Mien and of Bangala, who was a very puissant prince, with much territory and treasure and people; and he was not as yet subject to the Great Kaan, though it was not long after that the latter conquered him and took from him both the kingdoms that I have named.2 And it came to pass that when this king of Mien and Bangala heard that the host of the Great Kaan was at Vochan, he said to himself that it behoved him to go against them with so great a force as should insure his cutting off the whole of them, insomuch that the Great Kaan would be very sorry ever to send an army again thither [to his frontier].
So this king prepared a great force and munitions of war; and he had, let me tell you, 2000 great elephants, on each of which was set a tower of timber, well framed and strong, and carrying from twelve to sixteen well-armed fighting men.[NOTE 3] And besides these, he had of horsemen and of footmen good 60,000 men. In short, he equipped a fine force, as well befitted such a puissant prince. It was indeed a host capable of doing great things.
And what shall I tell you? When the king had completed these great preparations to fight the Tartars, he tarried not, but straightway marched against them. And after advancing without meeting with anything worth mentioning, they arrived within three days of the Great Kaan’s host, which was then at Vochan in the territory of Zardandan, of which I have already spoken. So there the king pitched his camp, and halted to refresh his army.
NOTE 1. — This date is no doubt corrupt. (See note 3, ch. lii.)
NOTE 2. — MIEN is the name by which the kingdom of Burma or Ava was and is known to the Chinese. M. Garnier informs me that Mien–Kwé or Mien-tisong is the name always given in Yun-nan to that kingdom, whilst the Shans at Kiang Hung call the Burmese Man (pronounced like the English word).
The title given to the sovereign in question of King of BENGAL, as well as of Mien, is very remarkable. We shall see reason hereafter to conceive that Polo did more or less confound Bengal with Pegu, which was subject to the Burmese monarchy up to the time of the Mongol invasion. But apart from any such misapprehension, there is not only evidence of rather close relations between Burma and Gangetic India in the ages immediately preceding that of our author, but also some ground for believing that he may be right in his representation, and that the King of Burma may have at this time arrogated the title of “King of Bengal,” which is attributed to him in the text.
Anaurahta, one of the most powerful kings in Burmese history (1017–1059), extended his conquests to the frontiers of India, and is stated to have set up images within that country. He also married an Indian princess, the daughter of the King of Wethali (i. e, Vaiçali in Tirhút).
There is also in the Burmese Chronicle a somewhat confused story regarding a succeeding king, Kyan-tsittha (A.D. 1064), who desired to marry his daughter to the son of the King of Patteik–Kará, a part of Bengal.1 The marriage was objected to by the Burmese nobles, but the princess was already with child by the Bengal prince; and their son eventually succeeded to the Burmese throne under the name of Alaungtsi-thu. When king, he travelled all over his dominions, and visited the images which Anaurahta had set up in India. He also maintained intercourse with the King of Patteik Kara and married his daughter. Alaungtsi-thu is stated to have lived to the age of 101 years, and to have reigned 75. Even then his death was hastened by his son Narathu, who smothered him in the temple called Shwé-Ku (“Golden Cave”), at Pagán, and also put to death his Bengali step-mother. The father of the latter sent eight brave men, disguised as Brahmans, to avenge his daughter’s death. Having got access to the royal presence through their sacred character, they slew King Narathu and then themselves. Hence King Narathu is known in the Burmese history as the Kalá-Kya Meng or “King slain by the Hindus.” He was building the great Temple at Pagán called Dhammayangyi, at the time of his death, which occurred about the year 1171. The great-grandson of this king was Narathihapade (presumably Narasinha-pati), the king reigning at the time of the Mongol invasion.
All these circumstances show tolerably close relations between Burma and Bengal, and also that the dynasty then reigning in Burma was descended from a Bengal stock. Sir Arthur Phayre, after noting these points, remarks: “From all these circumstances, and from the conquests attributed to Anaurahta, it is very probable that, after the conquest of Bengal by the Mahomedans in the 13th century, the kings of Burma would assume the title of Kings of Bengal. This is nowhere expressly stated in the Burmese history, but the course of events renders it very probable. We know that the claim to Bengal was asserted by the kings of Burma in long after years. In the Journal of the Marquis of Hastings, under the date of 6th September, 1818, is the following passage: ‘The king of Burma favoured us early this year with the obliging requisition that we should cede to him Moorshedabad and the provinces to the east of it, which he deigned to say were all natural dependencies of his throne.’ And at the time of the disputes on the frontier of Arakan, in 1823–1824, which led to the war of the two following years, the Governor of Arakan made a similar demand. We may therefore reasonably conclude that at the close of the 13th century of the Christian era the kings of Pagán called themselves kings of Burma and of Bengala.” (MS. Note by Sir Arthur Phayre; see also his paper in J.A.S.B. vol. XXXVII. part I.)
NOTE 3. — It is very difficult to know what to make of the repeated assertions of old writers as to the numbers of men carried by war-elephants, or, if we could admit those numbers, to conceive how the animal could have carried the enormous structure necessary to give them space to use their weapons. The Third Book of Maccabees is the most astounding in this way, alleging that a single elephant carried 32 stout men, besides the Indian Mahaut. Bochart indeed supposes the number here to be a clerical error for 12, but this would even be extravagant. Friar Jordanus is, no doubt, building on the Maccabees rather than on his own Oriental experience when he says that the elephant “carrieth easily more than 30 men.” Philostratus, in his Life of Apollonius, speaks of 10 to 15; Ibn Batuta of about 20; and a great elephant sent by Timur to the Sultan of Egypt is said to have carried 20 drummers. Christopher Borri says that in Cochin China the elephant did ordinarily carry 13 or 14 persons, 6 on each side in two tiers of 3 each, and 2 behind. On the other hand, among the ancients, Strabo and Aelian speak of three soldiers only in addition to the driver, and Livy, describing the Battle of Magnesia, of four. These last are reasonable statements.
(Bochart, Hierozoicon, ed. 3rd, p. 266; Jord., p. 26; Philost. trad. par A. Chassaing, liv. II. c. ii.; Ibn Bat. II. 223; N. and E. XIV. 510; Cochin China, etc., London, 1633, ed. 3; Armandi, Hist. Militaire des Eléphants, 259 seqq. 442.)
1 Sir A. Phayre thinks this may have been Vikrampúr, for some time the capital of Eastern Bengal before the Mahomedan conquest. Vikrampúr was some miles east of Dacca, and the dynasty in question was that called Vaidya. (See Lassen, III. 749.) Patteik–Kará is apparently an attempt to represent some Hindi name such as Patthargarh, “The Stone–Fort.”
