When people talk about Hispanic/Latino people. What country are they from (before they or there families moved to the usa?
I hear it a lot, but no idea what country they refer to.

we do think it's better not to provide any of this information to you.

Hispanic and Latino are both accronyms based on the countries that make them up.
I am not going to waste my time listing them for you, but will start you off...

I can't believe I am going to ask this in this thread - In the US do you count Italians as 'Latino' as well as those of Spanish descent?Comment

Before I got on the internet I used to think British people were intelligent.

Depends on what part of the country you're in. If you're in the Northeast they're Puerto Rican. If you're in the West or Southwest they're Mexican. If you're in Florida... well, Florida is really a part of Latin America, so they got all kinds of crazy Latino peoples. They even have Guatemalans, they're like a whole race of Oompa Loompas. They're like little brown Pokemon characters.Comment

Oh no, not the classic "If English was your first language...." put down?
Guaranteed way to stamp your authority on a debate, however for future reference, that approach is normally more effective, if
[a] you are actually right
[b] English is not the first language of the person you aim the comment at.
I make that 0 for 3. Care to continue?
How about next you guess what country I learned my English in?Comment

You could consider as Latin languages Italian, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Romanian, etcFuture AI Creators: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpC...FtsolMzRuWe3-A tostadomedia at gmail dot comComment

So what do you think Latin America means?
Latino means from Latin America. It's pretty straightforward and obvious.I understand that Latino in American means from the Spanish and Portuguese speaking countries. I just wondered if it was applied to Italians as well....
Yes, I've learned you're another fucking idiot, embarrassing a country that used to have a reputation for intelligence. I'll ask you the same question I asked Eddy: What do you think Latin America means?Comment

So Eddy, what does "Latin America" mean in English?Comment

My question was 'do you count Italians as Latinos in the US'?Latin America (Spanish: América Latina or Latinoamérica; Portuguese: América Latina; French: Amérique latine, Dutch: Latijns-Amerika) is a region of the Americas where Romance languages (i.e., those derived from Latin) ? particularly Spanish and Portuguese, and variably French ? are primarily spoken.[2][3] Latin America has an area of approximately 21,069,500 km² (7,880,000 sq mi), almost 3.9% of the Earth's surface or 14.1% of its land surface area. As of 2010, its population was estimated at more than 590 million[4] and its combined GDP at 5.16 trillion United States dollars (6.27 trillion at PPP).[5] The Latin American expected economic growth rate is at about 5.7% for 2010 and 4% in 2011.[6] According to Phelan (1968, p. 296), the term "Latin America" was first used in 1861 in La revue des races Latines, a magazine 'dedicated to the cause of Pan-Latinism'.
Its been answered - Thanks for your input though.....Comment

Latin America is a name used for countries in South America with languages derived from Latin. Never mind, the intelligence of Americans is known the world over, you'd never be able to embarrass yourself by showing how little you know as the level of intellectual expectation in Americans is so low.
I really don?t understand why you are being so aggressive about his query, his question was valid, different countries have different names for other people ? In the UK, Asians mean people from Pakistan or India not Oriental people for example.Free traffic and backlinks from one of the fastest growing adult pinsites on the net - SAUCY PICTURES!

Right. So shouldn't it be rather obvious where Latino Americans come from?
So you thought we call French people Latinos too?with languages derived from Latin.
Yawn.Never mind, the intelligence of Americans is known the world over, you'd never be able to embarrass yourself by showing how little you know as the level of intellectual expectation in Americans is so low.Comment

Neither french form France, nor spaniards from Spain, nor italians from Italy
latin language + America. France is not in America.
However on a related note, what about people form French Guinea? They live in latin america, speak latin language but I doubt they would be called latinos. Same to other blacks from latin america. Hence only speaking latin language and living in latin america does not make you latino

^ Sorry, I don't understand your first point. As for your second point, it doesn't matter how many Latin Americans 'qualify' as Latinos; the point is Latinos are from Latin America. (Not Italy or France or Romania or any other country where the language happens to derive from Latin.)Comment

this is a bit of a leap of logic saying that it is straightforward and "obvious"

^ Okay let me put it this way. It's obvious to anyone who doesn't think we use the word "Latino" to describe people from Italy, Spain, Portugal, France and, depending on context, Moldova, Romania, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany, and Austria (all part of the former Holy Roman Empire). Is that better?Comment
