Note
A regular plural, formed with -s and keeping its capital letter, as names drawn from places do. It serves both nouns behind it: people from Cuba or of Cuban descent, and cigars made in Cuba. Context usually settles which is meant. A box of Cubans holds cigars, while Cubans gathered in a plaza are people. The adjective takes no plural, so it is Cuban music, never Cubans music.
