Nationalities

  Some nationalities have nouns for referring two people. For example: a Finn, a Spaniard, a Dane, a Briton, an Arab.  For most nationalities we can use the adjective as a noun for example 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, e.g : a Dutch man, a French woman , an Irish person, an Icelandic man . Challenge: Can you mention in comments... 1) a Black Southern African political figure? 2) a Mexican female artist? 3) a Greek opera singer? 4) a British singer born in India?  5) an American poet? 6) a Spanish writer? 7) an Australian actress? 8) a German car? 9) a Argentinian  female   hockey player?  10) the Polish woman who won two Nobel prizes?
