ivorisch

German

Alternative forms

  • ivorianisch (less common)

Adjective

ivorisch

  1. Ivorian (pertaining to the Ivory Coast, Côte d'Ivoire)

Usage notes

  • Due to the discrepancy between the country name Elfenbeinküste and the adjective, the latter is not quite familiar even to many German-speakers with an average knowledge of geography. It may therefore be recommendable to gloss it (von der Elfenbeinküste) before using it.
