noun

Etymology: From Johannesburg + -er.

  1. an inhabitant of Johannesburg.

    By using a midget, skin-tight car of the kind made in Italy the Johannesburger might save himself much tribulation, but he likes large and glittering things, and would rather toil round his city in vain search of a place to put his supercharged, supergrinning Mammalac than use a baby car.

    A Johannesburger will seldom ask a visitor what he thinks of the city.
