Do South Americans Call Themselves Latino? [Solved]
Well, us Americans tend to call folks from Central and South America “Latino,” but they usually just refer to themselves by their country of origin. Ya know?
Geography: South Americans are people who live in the countries of South America, including Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana, Paraguay, Peru, Suriname and Uruguay.
Language: Spanish is the most widely spoken language among South Americans; however many also speak Portuguese and indigenous languages such as Quechua and Aymara.
Culture: South American culture is a mix of Indigenous cultures with influences from Europe and Africa due to colonization and immigration over the centuries. Music styles such as tango and salsa are popular throughout the region as well as traditional dances like capoeira from Brazil or cueca from Chile.
Religion: Catholicism is the predominant religion in most of South America but there are also Protestant denominations present in some countries such as Brazil or Uruguay where Evangelicalism has grown significantly in recent years.
Latino Identity: The term “Latino” refers to people with Latin American heritage regardless of their country of origin or current residence; it is often used interchangeably with “Hispanic” which refers specifically to Spanish-speaking populations living outside Latin America (e.g., US).
South Americans and Latinos are two groups of people who share a lot in common. They both have vibrant cultures, speak Spanish as their primary language, and have a strong sense of family values. Plus, they both enjoy delicious food and lively music! It’s no wonder why these two groups get along so well - they just seem to click!
