Root + “-ophone” construction to describe speakers of a language

Question

I've long used the terms anglophone and francophone to describe English and French speakers respectively, but I recently found myself about halfway through a sentence where I needed a similar term for Spanish speakers before I realized I actually had no idea what it was or how they're created. A quick search turned up the following list of "established" terms.

• anglophone (English-speaking)
• arabophone (Arab-speaking)
• francophone (French-speaking)
• germanophone or teutophone (German-speaking)
• hellenophone (Greek-speaking)
• hispanophone (Spanish-speaking)
• italophone (Italian-speaking)
• lusophone (Portugese-speaking)
• russophone (Russian-speaking)
• sinophone (Chinese-speaking)

Are there additional commonly used terms? Is the construction still productive?

Answer 1

Is the construction still productive?

Other than anglophone and francophone, the other terms are very rarely used and are best avoided and clear forms such as "Italian speaker" used instead. In fact, I would probably avoid anglophone and francophone as well.

Are there additional commonly used terms?
