"Ben Fransalıyım."

Translation: I am French.

[GordonRobb]

What is the break down of Fransaliyim - in terms of suffixes.

[airelibre]

Fransa - France, lı - with, yım - I am/Me.
Although, li seems to be a suffix commonly used for forming adjectives: yasli - with age - old, so I think Fransalı is "French", and all together it is I am French.

[Complex77]

So "French" is used as an adjective here?

[lucaturilli]

Yes, it is.

You just blew my mind with yaşlı

[tanbu_gg]

It is correct in the same way saying "I am Franceish" is correct
It follows the correct grammatical construction but a word for "French" (Fransız) already exists.

[vfurmanov]

Is "ben Fransızım" an acceptable translation for "I am French?"

[lucaturilli]

yes and it is also the literal one.

[GastonDorren]

Is this a standard way of saying 'I am from'? Could I say 'ben Hollandalıyım', or 'o Türkiyelidir'?

[AlexinNotTurkey]

Well, get rid of the -dir (in most contexts it wouldn't be necessary here) and yes :)

The -lI suffix can be used to mean "is from X" :)

Does the -li suffix make the word a noun as e.g. in German or does it remain an adjective?

[lucaturilli]

The words with -li suffix are adjectives.

[JoaoDSouza]

I want to be able to say that some day.
