Englishwoman
Lady from London
An Englishwoman is a woman from England or of English descent.
The term emphasizes both nationality and gender: The Englishwoman abroad found the heat unbearable.
Like Englishman, it sounds somewhat formal or old-fashioned compared to simply saying "English woman" or "woman from England."
