Yeah I think it’s the -ese too. I thought it was wrong to use for a person in singular, but apparently not for all nationalities. English is all vibes.
You’re on to something. If I said ‘i was talking to a Lebanonese’, it sounds kinda off, but ‘i was talking to an Iraqi, an Afghan, Palestinian’ sounds fine.
You also can’t pluralize -ese words without adding “people”, while you can make the other ones plural with just an “s”. Very inconvenient. English is weird.
