Many a Bahraini
Answer:
ARAB
Hint:
Think of the predominant ethnic group across much of the Middle East.
Explanation:
This clue plays on the idea that most people from Bahrain are ethnically Arab, so "many a Bahraini" simply refers to an ARAB. The word "many" hints that the answer is a general term rather than something specific to Bahrain alone. It’s a straightforward definition clue with no hidden wordplay—just a cultural reference to the dominant ethnic group in the country.
