Slang for a citizen of your nation

Postby Britannia I » Sun Jun 02, 2013 2:16 pm

British are called Brits and Tommies, Americans are Yanks, Germans are Jerries and Russians are Ruskies. What is the slang name for your Citizens?

Britannians are mostly called Brannies or Imps.

Since

The correct demonym for a person from Themiclesia is

Themi (1 person)
Thēma (2 people)
Themioi (3 or more people),

the (politically) oppressed peoples in the colonies calls full citizens "them," to emphasise the fact that they are not "one of us" and all three forms of the actual noun begin with "them."

Yet human intelligence has another force, too: the sense of urgency that gives human smarts their drive. Perhaps our intelligence is not just ended by our mortality; to a great degree, it is our mortality.

While the proper term is Blewogi, the popular slang term has become "Æl"

For example,
"My name is Æthryful, and I'm an Æl."
"Did you see those Æls at the soccer game?"

This slang comes from the fact that over 85% of our population has a name that contains the vowel "Æ", including the last 3 Kings of Blewog.
