Usage notes

  • Erroneously formed demonym, as if Yunan (Greek) was a toponym. Although not proscribed, there are many speakers who are in favor of the use of Greek. See also Hintli (Indian).
  • Isn't inflected using an apostrophe as opposed to Yunan because of -lı which normally derives new lemmas.
