What am I? English? British?

Your nationality is determined by your country of primary residence. (For instance, I've lived in the United States for most of my life, therefore my nationality would be American.) What I believe you're asking about is your ETHNICITY. If your grandmother is from England, then your ethnicity is definitely English (you could say "British," too).

You can use the terms "UK", "Great Britain" and "England" interchangeably, but "England" would be the most precise answer.

The united Kingdom is made of 4 countries, England, wales, scotland and northern ireland.

Under International law the country is Britain. But in terms of identity it is somewhat difficult.

I know Assyrians, Bohemians, Palestenians, Scottish, Welsh, Mongolians (from Northern China), Tibetans, Taiwanese, Hong Kong People and so on. None of these places are recognised by the United Nations.

Rather it is about individual identify. My father's side of the family is English and my mother's side is Scottish, even though both families had moved out from home a long time past.

Your natiionality is your citizenship, so it depends on who gets to give a passport.

YOu can say you have British or English heritage (for someone of your Grandmother's era, being British was important).

Personally I was a citizen of no nation until the age of 10, so my answer is, I am a person. Stuff nationality.

I'm sure you can tell people that your grandmother is from either Great Britian or England. The UK is fine, but it is England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales. Great Britian is just England, Scotland, and Ireland. Take your pick, if people want to know what part of the UK or Great Britian, they will probably ask

British is a collective word for England, Scotland , Wales and the Commonwealth therefore I am White English for example those who are of Indian origin are British when I watch football I don't shout come on British.

Any. England is a nation included within both the terms the UK and Great Britian.

** just for the record, MANY irish people do not consider themselves part of the United Kingdom

where were you born? if you were born in England your English, if in Scotland then Scottish if in Wales then Welsh if in Ireland then Irish.

British is all the nationalities of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. all people of the UK have a British passport as there is not an English, Scottish, Welsh or Norther Irish passport.

My mum used to tell me that i was English, aside from the fact I am half Irish and a little bit French! Anyway I was born In England and a lot of older people think that makes you English.

It is not wrong but the act of union makes us all BRITISH! So that is what I call myself.

My Grandmother is from France but I don't class myself as French. I am from Wales so I'm Welsh and British, both are correct, as is English and British. Anyone who is English, Welsh, Scottish or from Northern Ireland is also British.

On some official application forms you could say you are British, however some other forms you can say you are European. Also with reference to the Northern Ireland identity, inhabitants have the right to hold both British and Irish passports, so there is automatically dual citizenship.

Unnited Kingdom is Scotland, Irland, England and Wales. You are English because you are from England.
