israelí

/israeˈli/ · B2 · adj

Israeli

🇮🇱 israelí = Israel + -í, the Spanish suffix for 'person or thing from'

Spanish builds the demonym from the country name Israel plus the ending -í, as in iraní and marroquí. Stress falls on the last syllable: is-ra-e-LÍ. It works as both adjective and noun, with plural israelíes or israelís.
