    Default "I am Indian" or "I am an Indian"

    I am Indian
    I am an Indian
    We are Indian
    We are Indians

    Are all the four sentences correct?

    Thank you

    Hi
    Not a teacher opinion.

    But I think the 2nd and the 4th sentences are correct.

    Thanks for reading my reply.
