Chileans

/tʃɪˈliːənz/ noun

Definition

People from Chile; the plural of Chilean, referring to the inhabitants or native people of Chile.

Etymology

From 'Chilean' (relating to Chile) + '-s' (English plural marker). Chile's name possibly derives from Quechua 'chili' (end of the world) or from Aymara 'tchili' (cold), reflecting the Andean indigenous languages.

Kelly Says

Chileans are often defined by their geographic isolation—the Atacama Desert to the north and the Andes Mountains create natural boundaries that shaped a distinct national identity different from their neighbors Peru, Bolivia, and Argentina.
