Dutch actually comes from Diets. (Not Deutsch.) That is an old word for northern dialects of the German language spoken in the late Medieval period.

A Dutchman is from Holland / the Netherlands. So you'd say: "He is Dutch. He speaks Dutch."

A German is from Germany. You'd say "He is German. He speaks German." 

He is Cambodian (nationality). He is Khmer (that's an ethnic group in Cambodia and some parts of Vietnam.) Khmer is not recognised as a nationality but an ethnic group.

"Dutch" means from the Netherlands.

The "Pennsylvania Dutch"'  are not Dutch.  It is a corruption of  "Pennsylvania Deutsch."

"Dutchland" would get you confused looks in English.

English-speakers call it "Germany" though most educated English speakers would recognize "Deutschland" as what Germans call their country. And educated English speakers would recognize a connection between "Deutsch" and "Dutch".

Germany is an interesting country in that different Europeans call it different things, since they named it by whatever German tribe happened to live closest to them! (Norsk: Tyskland, Francais: Allemagne, Italiano: Germania but "a German" is "un tedesco")

In US English, we're more likely to say "Cambodian". Academic people might use "Khmer"

Hello :)

In English, it's Germany. 

Khmer is used, but Cambodian is more common. 

Have a good day!
