1. A person belonging to the Javanese people (one of the indigenous groups native to Java island).
2. A cat of a certain domestic cat breed.

使用する際の注意点

As with other terms for people formed with -ese, the countable singular noun in reference to a person (as in "I am a Javanese", "writing about Javanese cuisine as a Javanese") is uncommon and often taken as incorrect. In its place, the adjective is used, by itself (as in "I am Javanese") or before a noun like person, man, or woman ("writing about Javanese cuisine as a Javanese person"). See also -ish, which is similarly only used primarily as an adjective or as a plural noun.
