Anglophone

An Anglophone is someone who speaks English natively or by adoption. As an adjective, it means English-speaking.

In Canada this term is widely used to designate someone whose everyday language is English, contrasted to francophones (those who speak French natively) and allophoness (those who don't speak English or French natively).
