Gotlander is a word that refers to the people who live on the Swedish island of Gotland. Gotland is a special place because it has its own unique culture and history, which makes the people who live there special too. When we use the word "Gotlander," we are talking about these special people who come from this unique place. Think of it like talking about people from different countries - if you say someone is French, for example, you know they come from France and that they might speak French and have certain cultural traditions. Saying someone is a Gotlander is like saying they come from Gotland and have their own special traditions and ways of life.
