when i ask people what nationality they are, instead of saying for example America, the place they were born, they start saying.................'well, i'm 1/4 Irish, 2/3 German, 1/5 Spanish and so on........
this confuses me! are you not a citizen of the country you were born in? hence your nationality is which ever country you were born in.
i was born in Ireland so i'm Irish, plain and simple!
can someone explain how you can be 2/3 or 1/4 of anything, and why do people have to mention it and complicate a really simple answer?
