Usage Note

Haitiano functions as both noun (un haitiano, a Haitian man) and adjective (el pueblo haitiano, the Haitian people). The feminine form is haitiana. Haiti is Haití in Spanish, with a written accent on the i to mark it as two separate vowels rather than a diphthong.

Examples

"Conocí a un músico haitiano en la feria."

Natural Translation

I met a Haitian musician at the fair.
