Start with the country name Oman and add -i, a suffix used in several nationality words, including Iraqi and Pakistani. This gives Omani, which can function as either an adjective or a noun. Learn it through common combinations: Omani cuisine, Omani architecture, an Omani citizen, and the Omani delegation. Keep the pair clear: Oman is the country, while Omani describes something from that country or names one of its people. As a nationality word and proper adjective, Omani is normally written with an initial capital letter.

omani の語源・成り立ち Etymology
アラビア半島の国名Oman（オマーン）に英語の形容詞・民族接尾辞-iを付けた語。国名の由来は諸説あり、アラブの部族名や「定住する民」を意味するアラビア語に遡るとされる。関連語：Iraqi、Pakistani。
Omani is formed from the place name Oman plus the nationality and relational suffix -i. English uses the same suffix in several words referring to national or regional origin, such as Iraqi and Pakistani. The deeper origin of Oman is disputed and has been linked to tribal or personal names and to interpretations involving settlement or residence. Since no single explanation is certain, the transparent modern formation Oman plus -i is the most reliable guide to the English word.
