Nepalese

/ˌnɛpəˈliz/ adjective

Definition

Relating to Nepal, its people, or their language and culture.

Etymology

From Nepal plus English suffix '-ese' (indicating origin or language). Nepal itself may derive from Sanskrit 'Nepala', possibly meaning 'at the foot of the mountains'.

Kelly Says

The suffix '-ese' creates nationality and language descriptors across many cultures - Chinese, Japanese, Nepalese - showing how English systematically borrows and adapts this pattern to describe global diversity.
