Англійське слово “nationality” – національність, використовується в розмовній мові рідко. Це більш формальний вираз, який частіше можна зустріти в документах щодо міграції чи туризму.
У розмовній мові ніхто не запитає: What is your nationality?
Натомість вас запитають: Where are you from? / Where do you come from?
Відповідати варто: I’m (Ukrainian, American, Mexican і т.д.) або: I am from (Ukraine, America, Poland і т.д.)
