Joining the nitpicking festival.


<i>Latin Americans" would encompass Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean islands</i>


Then you would describe a Jamaican as Latin?

It's getting better and better.



Cheers,

West Indian
by AC on Sunday 14/Dec/2003, @20:29
Immigrants from Jamaica (and Barbados and Trinidad...) are called West Indians in the UK -- most British English speakers wouldn't think of them as any sort of American. But of course in Indian English West Indian might refer to someone from Gujarat or Punjab. Cubans are Latin but are they Latin *American*?

Picking nits like this is contagious.
