Grenadian

/ɡrəˈneɪdiən/ adjective

Definition

Relating to Grenada, an island nation in the Caribbean, or its people and culture.

Etymology

From Grenada, the Caribbean island, whose name comes from Spanish 'Granada' (pomegranate), named by Columbus in reference to the fruit's association with the Spanish city.

Kelly Says

Grenada was so associated with nutmeg that it became known as the 'Isle of Spice'—and Grenadians built their entire economy around this fragrant seed, making tiny island economics dependent on what grows in the volcanic soil.
