United Kingdom

The United Kingdom consists of England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. When you say 영국, it means the United Kingdom, not England.

The proper adjective from of the United Kingdom therefore is either "U.K." or "British", not "English." Take a look at the following examples:

• the British government/the U.K. government (o)
• British English (o)
  
• the British Parliament/the U.K. Parliament (o)
• a British scientist (o)

• an English scientist (x, unless you are emphasizing the fact that this person is from England)
  
• the English government (x)
• the English Parliament (x)
