The plural is regular: Iraqis. Do not use 'Iraqi' as a collective plural noun without 'the' — ✗ 'Iraqi are known for their hospitality' → ✅ 'Iraqis are known for their hospitality' or ✅ 'The Iraqi people are known for their hospitality'. The noun refers only to people, not to the language (the language is Arabic, Kurdish, etc.).
