You can find the information you desire more quickly, if you use a hard copy or online dictionary.

Here is the definition from an online dictionary of "ethnic," which I got <I>after</I> looking up "ethnicity":

<B>Main Entry: [1]eth·nic
Pronunciation:</B> 'eth-nik
<B>Function:</B> adjective
<B>Etymology:</B> Middle English, from Late Latin ethnicus, from Greek ethnikos national, gentile, from ethnos nation, people; akin to Greek Ethos custom —more at SIB
Date: 15th century
<B>1 :</B> HEATHEN
<B>2 a :</B> of or relating to large groups of people classed according to common racial, national, tribal, religious, linguistic, or cultural origin or background <ethnic minorities> <ethnic enclaves> <B>b :</B> being a member of an ethnic group <B>c :</B> of, relating to, or characteristic of ethnics <ethnic neighborhoods> <ethnic foods>

It refers to groups that share a "style of life."

I searched Google under the key words "<I>ethnicity</I>" to get these possible sources:

In the future, you can find the information you desire more quickly, if you use appropriate key words to do your own search.

I hope this helps. Thanks for asking.
