Flist to the rescue!

A person with citizenship granted by Germany is German.

A person with citizenship granted by Switzerland is Swiss.

A person with citizenship granted by Australia is Australian.

What the blazes is someone with citizenship granted by Liechtenstein?!


(Yes, this is a serious question. It's really bugging me. I've only just realised Liechtenstein isn't the same as Lichtenstein, but still don't know how to refer to this chap.)

Answers on a postcard (or, y'know, in an LJ comment) please... there may be a prize if any amuse me particularly (or are even right!)

Am pretty sure you can use Liechtensteiner as an adjective :)

I'm assuming that the adjective is Liechtenstein or Liechtensteiner. The article talks about "Liechtensteiners having a life expectancy" but also about "Liechtenstein taxes/ruling prince" and for other countrys it would be French/German/English taxes which is what makes me think both are acceptable

I want to call them a Lichtenstain. But I just don't know.
Lichtensteinian is my gut reaction.

My other dominant reaction is that I WANT TO GANK YOUR ICON NOW BECAUSE ST DOGBERT IS AWESOME AND MY HERO AND YAY.
