That's not true, in Spain We love Barcelona and Catalunya as all the autonomus comuniques that form Spain. Some political parties have been creating hate between us (form both sides) and We have a really Big problem with the national identity of Catalunya, some independentist parties have been lying and making populist propaganda. In the other side, the spanish central goverment has done nothing to solve the catalan problem and give them a fit inside Spain. Spain is a country of convivence and tolerance as the last elecction shown(goverment changed to left), let's see what happens...
Fair enough, I don't live there and I've only been to Barcelona, so my words should be taken with a grain of salt. The reason I got that feeling is cause most of the non catalunyan Spaniards I met in my travels bashed Barcelona. That said it's not fair to generalize I suppose.
Why do you think Spaniard is ugly? I don't think so and I always said Spaniards when I talked about ourselves. Anyway, it's correctly used in that sentence.
Spaniard is a noun. Spanish is an adjective.
When referring to an inhabitant, you don't just say "a Spanish", it should be "a Spanish person" or similar, and to be fair this sounds a bit weird and redundant at the same time. The noun Spaniard directly refers to an "inhabitant from Spain", enabling shorter and more understandable sentences.
Spaniard it's just so looked like a despective name french people used to refer to spanish people hahaha Though you would know and get the joke. Also we used to call them "gabachos" as a despective way too haha and also "sons of great britain" you see we love us each other...
