Other | | Dutch term or phrase: Zwitserlandbewoners | | Bewoners (men) van Zwitserland. Het zijn dus geen Zwitsers maar ze wonen er wel en hebben kenmerken van de Zwitsers aangenomen. Iemand een leuke vertaling. Letterlijk is wat saai.Bedankt. |

16 mins confidence:   peer agreement (net): +4 residents of Switzerland
Explanation:
Texts having to do with citizenship, etc. distinguish between 'nationals' and 'residents', i.e. residents include citizens living in the country as well as others who have legal residence status ther. This leaves open, of course, all the people living in a country who are not legally there (what Americans call 'illegal aliens'). One can also distinguish 'permanent residents' from 'temporary residents' if necessary for the context. Alternatively, you could use "inhabitants" in a demographic context to include everyone currengly living in a country, where one does not distinguish among their status.
