Serbians ((セルビア語:Србијанци/Srbijanci)) is a demonym for the inhabitants of Serbia, most oftenly for ethnic Serbs, though correctly used for people regardless of ethnicity. In the Serbian language, ''Srbi'' is used for Serbs from Serbia, or in a narrow sense, Serbs from central Serbia.〔Miller, Nick (2008). ''The Nonconformists: Culture, Politics, and Nationalism in a Serbian Intellectual Circle, 1944-1991.'' Central European University Press. p. 148.〕 The term thus excludes ethnic Serbs in the neighboring countries, such as Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Montenegro and Macedonia. An English speaker might use the word "Serbians" to mean "Serbs". Further confusions issues as in English the word "Serbs" may be used to refer to ethnic Serbs, or to citizens of Serbia regardless of their ethnicity, and going from there, word "Serbians" could be used in the same way.〔Uzelak, Gordona (1998). "Franjo Tudjman's Nationalist Ideology." ''East European Quarterly.'' 31.〕〔Petrovich, Michael B. (1985). "Review of The National Question in Yugoslavia: Origins, History, Politics." ''Slavic Review''. 4 (2), 369 – 370.〕 In the 1852 ''Serbian Dictionary'', the entry includes the following: A folk song from Central Serbia has in its refrain the words "..''jelek, anterija i opanci, po tome se znaju Srbijanci''...", meaning ''"...jelek, anterija, and opanaks, is how you recognize a Srbijanac''...". The song describes the Serbian dress of people from Central Serbia, and the term ''Srbijanci'' is used as a literary expression and its definition is uncertain. The term ''Srbijanci'' is not part of the modern Serbian mainstream language as its frequency and usage is minimal. An explanation might be that many Serbs from Serbia would find the term insulting.〔http://www.standard.rs/zoran-cirjakovic-zasto-je-uvredljiva-rec-srbijanac.html| "Why is Srbijanac offensive word" in Serbian〕 ==See also== * Serbs * Serbomans * Yugoslavs * Demographics of Serbia * Prečani Serbs 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Serbians」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
