Latino /læˈtinoʊ/ or /ləˈtinoʊ/[1] is a term
used chiefly in the United States to refer to people of Latin American
extraction or descent, though the term has also been incorrectly used as a
synonym for Hispanic. Hispanic is a narrower term which only refers to
persons of Spanish-speaking origin or ancestry, while "Latino" is more
frequently used to refer more generally to anyone of Latin American origin
or ancestry, including Brazilians.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] The term
latino is used to refer to males only or a combination of males and females
in a group, whereas the term latina is used to refer to females only.
The U.S. Government has defined Hispanic or Latino persons as being "persons
who trace their origin [to] . . . Central and South America, and other
Spanish cultures."[11] The United States Census uses the ethnonym Hispanic
or Latino to refer to "a person of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South or
Central American, or other Spanish culture or origin regardless of race."[12
] The Census Bureau also explains that "[o]rigin can be viewed as the
heritage, nationality group, lineage, or country of birth of the person or
the person’s ancestors before their arrival in the United States. People
who identify their origin as Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish may be of any race
."[13] The AP Stylebook's recommended usage of Latino includes not only
persons of Spanish-speaking ancestry, but also more generally includes
persons "from -- or whose ancestors were from -- . . . Latin America,
including Brazilians."[10] |
