Brazilian

Correct spelling, explanation: the word Brazilian originates from the noun Brazil (a country in South America). As you can see, it’s a derivative. Being so, it consists of two parts: the root (Brazil) and the suffix (-ian). This suffix is often used to create adjectives of belonging (meaning from, related to, or like). It comes from Latin -iānus. Remember that the only correct version of this word is Brazilian, not Brazillian.

Incorrect spelling

Brazillian

Incorrect spelling, explanation: the word Brazillian doesn’t exist in any dictionary. The right form, Brazilian, is a derivative of the noun Brazil. It was made by adding a specific suffix to the end of the root. This suffix is -ian, not -lian, so putting the double -l consonant in this word doesn’t make any sense. The only correct version is Brazilian and Brazillian is just a misspelling.
