French term meaning 'of or relating to Geneva,' used particularly in French linguistic and cultural contexts.
From French 'Genève' (Geneva) plus the French masculine adjective suffix '-ois.' This is the native French form, creating a linguistic distinction between French speakers and English speakers discussing the same Swiss city.
The same city gets different names depending on your language—English speakers say 'Genevan,' but French speakers say 'Genevois,' and the city itself calls itself 'Genève'—a perfect example of how language divides geography!
