There are a number of words denoting persons who trace their origins to a Spanish-speaking country or culture.Hispanic is the broadest of these terms, encompassing all Spanish-speaking peoples in both hemispheresand emphasizing the common denominator of language between communitiesthat sometimes have little else in common.It is widely used in both official and unofficial contextsand is entirely acceptable,although like the termSpanish American, it has occasionally been criticized as unduly emphasizing the role of European influences in shaping ethnic identity to the neglect of indigenous cultures.Latino is also in wide use, but it is somewhat less formal in most contextsand is generally restricted to persons of Latin-American descent.See Usage Note at Chicano
有許多單詞表示那些來歷或出身可以溯及西班牙語國家或文化的人，Hispanic 是這些詞中應(yīng)用最廣泛的， 包括了兩個半球所有講西班牙語的民族，并且強調(diào)不同團體的語言上的共同特征，盡管它們在別的方面共同點很少。這個詞被廣泛地用于官方和非官方的語境中，并且被完全接受，盡管象Spanish American 一樣， 偶然會有人批評它過分地強調(diào)在形成忽視本土文化的種族特性的歐洲影響。Latimo 應(yīng)用得很廣泛， 但在大多數(shù)語境下它不太正式，并且一般只限于有拉丁美洲血統(tǒng)的人參見 Chicano
