Usage notes edit

  • Erroneously formed demonym, as if Hint (Indian) was a toponym. Although not proscribed, there are many speakers who are in favor of the use of Hint. See also Yunanlı (Greek).
  • Isn't inflected using an apostrophe as opposed to Hint because of -li which normally derives new lemmas.
