Rule
Unlike English, when it comes to nationalities, in Arabic, there is a difference whether you're a girl or a boy.
- Example in English: She is French / He is French
- Example in Arabic: هي فرنسية / هو فرنسي
- هو /hiwa/ means He
- هي /hiya/ means She
- فرنسي /Firansi/ means French in masculine
- فرنسية /Firansya/ mean French in feminine
To switch from masculine to feminine, in Arabic, you just add the lettre /ة/.
To say "I'm Algerian" in Arabic you just need: The personal Pronoun + the nationality
