Adjective (The Japanese language is a classical language...)

[Xyz]

Please check the following:

The English elect … (here ‘people’ is understood). Likewise

1) The Japanese language is a classical language.
2) The Japanese people are hard working people.
3) The Japanese grammar is one of the best grammar.
4) The Japanese people speak Japanese.

Now can I write like this?

1) The Japanese is a classical language.
2) The Japanese are hard working people.
3) The Japanese is one of the best grammar.
4) The Japanese speak Japanese.

[Dodgewiper]

I think that you can write like that because your second sentences are some kinds of brevity and every body can understand your mean from the rest of the sentence.

We say 'the Americans'. That would be an additional option, I'm sorry I left it out:
The Americans elect their president...

However, unless relating the term to a following noun (Japanese people, Japanese painting, Japanese poetry), I would always use 'the' with 'Japanese'. To say 'Japanese elect their president...' sounds distinctly odd to me.

In the sentence 'The Americans fought the Germans' then it sounds more natural to leave 'people' out... the American nation (Americans) fought the German nation (Germans).
