@krazyjnva2up2down55 "Latino" is grammatically incorrect in English. Correct way is Latin masculine and feminine. Latin means: possessing Roman culture and nothing else. However when these people identify themselves as "Latins" or using "Latinos" it's not to identify with Roman culture. For them Latin/ Latino means "Latin American/s". In other words instead of saying I'm Latin American, they say I'm Latin/Latino/Latina which is incorrect. Latin means one thing and Latin American means another. For us Latin European: Italians, French, Romanians, Portuguese and Spaniards when we say "I'm Latin" we mean that we have Roman Latin Culture and this is the correct way. The people from Latin America must say "I'm Latin American" and stop this manipulation of history.

These are the real Hispanics: Spaniards and Portuguese. Why? Because they come from HISPANIA which is the name given by the Romans to what is now Spain and Portugal. The people of the Americas have twisted and misappropriated this "Hispanic" term without knowing it's history. They have also misappropriated the "Latin/Latino" term and given a different meaning when Latin actually means : possessing Roman culture but they use it as an abbreviation for saying "Latin Americans'. The fact is that "Latin American/s" cannot be abbreviated into "Latin or Latino" because Latin/s means one thing and Latin American/s means another. And by the way in correct English it's Latin, masculine and feminine and NOT Latino and not Latina.

@DanielEstrada-hz9cc The real "Hispanics" are Portuguese and Spaniards. Hispanic comes from the name Hispania which is the name given by the Romans to what is now Portugal and Spain.
