Latins In Shambles Learning That The English Language Is More Sophisticated Than Their Own.

Becuz Louisiana and Canada aren’t located in what is considered Latin America. Other countries you mentioned like Jamaica and Trinidad are in Latin America but they aren’t considered Latino becuz they don’t speak a Romance language

A lot of people are focusing on the linguistic designations and are ignoring the overlap with culture and political ones.


The English-speaking Caribbean is in no way Latino. Nor the French-speaking Caribbean.

Because Lousiana Creoles and French Canadians both still have outside influence from Anglo culture that Haiti does not. The only major European influences on Haiti are France and to a much much lesser extent Spain, because theres hundreds of thousands of Haitians who can legit speak or at least understand Spanish as a second language and the island that Haiti sits on is literally called La Hispaniola. So they're definitely Latin based 100 percent.

French Canada is a sub culture within a larger Anglo Saxon state, same as Lousiana Creoles.

1. Before it was "they speak a Latin language", now other influences come into play too?

2. Hundreds of thousands of Haitians speak Spanish? Not in Haiti, nope. Absolutely not true.


3.

The term was further popularized by French emperor Napoleon III's government in the 1860s as Amérique latine to justify France's military involvement in the Second Mexican Empire and to include French-speaking territories in the Americas such as French Canada, French Louisiana, French Guiana, Martinique, Guadeloupe, Haiti and the French Antillean Creole Caribbean islands Saint Lucia and Dominica, in the larger group of countries where Spanish and Portuguese languages prevailed.

If an actual Frenchman considered them Latin American, then why not?

Planning on learning Dutch so I can cuss you fukk nikkas out in a language that 90% of Americans won't be able to understand, but will have a faint idea of what I'm saying because both are in the same family

Ya’ll act like Haitians actually give a damn about being considered Latino or not.
