Word choice: I'm Russian, I'm a Russian. When do I say “I'm Russian” without the article, but when “I'm a Russian” with the article? What I think is that in the first sentence the adjective “Russian” as if describes me, whereas the second one says that I'm a citizen of Russia, is that so? The same as “we are English” and “we are the English”. Thanks for your attention! =)
