Countries Learning countries in English is not difficult, but English language learners must know countries vocabulary because they must be able to introduce to somenone who is a foreigner or comes from another city. There is a simple rule to introduce to someone: Personal pronoun or name + verb to be (is, are) + from + country or city Personal pronoun or name + Verb to come(s) + from + country or city

Examples: Giovanni is from Italy. Laura comes from Spain. Elena is from Russia. Diego is from Argentina. Wang comes from China.

Personal pronoun or name + verb to speak(s) + language
Languages On the other hand, if the English language learners want to tell what language is spoken by someone, they must learn the langauges vocabulary. There is a simple rule to mention what language is spoken by someone: Personal pronoun or name + verb to speak(s) + language

Examples: Giovanni speaks Italian. Laura speaks Spanish.
Elena speaks Russian. Tiago speaks Portuguese. Wang speaks Chinese.

Personal pronoun or name + verb to be (is,are) + nationality adjective
Nationalities Forming nationality adjectives and nouns from country names is not always simple in English. Use the nationality adjective ending in -ese or -ish (this rule is not always the same for all the nationalities adjectives) with a plural verb, to refer to all people of that nationality. Personal pronoun or name + verb to be (is,are) + nationality adjective
