Sergipana

Sergipana is the feminine form of the demonym for residents of Sergipe, a state in the Northeast region of Brazil. In Portuguese, inhabitants are commonly described as Sergipanos (men) and Sergipanas (women). The term functions as both a noun and an adjective to denote origin, for example uma Sergipana or cultura Sergipana (Sergipean culture).

The masculine form is Sergipano, with plural forms Sergipanos (masc., or mixed) and Sergipanas (fem.). usage follows standard Portuguese demonym patterns, and Sergipana can describe people, cuisine, traditions, or other things associated with Sergipe.

Sergipe is the smallest Brazilian state by area, located along the Atlantic coast and bordered by Bahia to the north and west and by Alagoas to the south. Its capital and largest city is Aracaju. The Sergipana identity is tied to the state's varied cultural heritage, including music, folklore, crafts, and regional cuisine, reflecting the broader history and communities of Sergipe.

In contemporary usage, Sergipana commonly appears in media, descriptions of people from Sergipe, and discussions of regional culture, maintaining a neutral, descriptive tone consistent with demonym usage in Portuguese.
