Berliners

German capital residents

Berliners are residents or natives of Berlin, Germany's capital.

The word also refers to a type of jelly-filled doughnut, round and typically topped with powdered sugar or icing—called a Berliner in much of Germany, though Berliners themselves use other names for it.

The Berliners we met were friendly and spoke excellent English.
