使用する際の注意点

• As with other terms for people formed with -ese, the countable singular noun in reference to a person (as in "I am a Taishanese", "writing about Taishanese cuisine as a Taishanese") is uncommon and often taken as grammatically incorrect. In its place, the adjective is used, by itself (as in "I am Taishanese") or before a noun like person, man, or woman ("writing about Taishanese cuisine as a Taishanese person"). See also -ish, which is similarly only primarily used as an adjective or as a plural noun.
