Best Answer

Generally, that they were born in England, of a family that has been in England for some time, and that they 'feel' English. The formal nationality of the state that England is part of (The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland) is 'British', which includes inhabitants of England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. Although Northern Ireland itself is part of the UK but not Great Britain its inhabitants are still described as British.

Someone could be considered English if they are a citizen of England or have strong cultural ties to England, such as being born and raised there, speaking the language, embracing English customs and traditions, and identifying as English. Nationality, culture, and identity can all play a role in defining someone as English.
