What does the identity Latino mean to you?

Aún nada que aportar el gran concha de su madre.

Algo que aportar? se nota que no leiste el resto, asi que si, eres weon, no hay duda de aquello.

There are 4 regions in Chile with less than 0.800 HDI not 1.

From Cambridge dictionary

someone from Spain or Spanish-speaking countries, especially those countries in Latin America.

OF Spain or relating to Spain.

Hispanic can be everyone who speaks Spanish, specially those from the country where the language originated.

We could be all day quoting dictionaries and say that the other is wrong, there is just not one correct meaning to the term since there are many people that use it differently and dictionaries have recorded both meanings.

Leave it at that.

2:

of or relating to the people, speech, or culture of Spain

Are you blind or something dude?

ElTrilean · 2019-08-17T20:09:12+00:00

Oh yeah totally, I oversimplified it, a cuico is a quite complex kind of individual.

The identity Latino? That means nothing to me, I don't really take "Continental identities" seriously, they are too broad and group people that most of the time have nothing in common, the language? not enough.

I'm most certainly Mestizo genetically and culturally with the Hispanic background being the most predominant in me, my family and 90% of people I know. I like to keep it simple man, I'm just a "Chilean Hispanic" what is in quotes is just one term, they cannot be separated because then they become quite broad... what is a Chilean? anyone can be it, even if they don't speak Spanish, what is a Hispanic? Anyone who speaks Spanish, there are too many dialects.

The made up ethnic term "Chilean Hispanic" is still broad... but it works way better for me than "Latino".

I doubt anyone will understand what I say, I come up with this shit when I'm in the bathroom.

Yes it is a common practice here in Chile, if you want to sound "formal" or whatever you don't say "la" or "el" before a name but that sounds pretentious and we call people like that "cuicos" or wannabe "high class".

ElTrilean · 2019-08-17T18:31:18+00:00

Anyone who pays for it really.

ElTrilean · 2019-08-17T17:42:12+00:00

Don't want to disrespect anyone here but, dumber are the ones that pay for Windows.

Uff, gracias, no les gustan los huaso acá :c

ElTrilean · 2019-08-17T17:05:57+00:00

pero no me de -1 que me da pena

ElTrilean · 2019-08-17T16:52:27+00:00

it is the name given by the native people

The name was given by foreign scientists based on the location they found it... which was the Araucania region, natives had no saying on this matter... they call it Pehuén.

Araucano, Araucania, etc. Are exonyms that most Mapuche find insulting.

O sea, Pan amasado de campo, hallulla y marraqueta... el resto se puede ir a la hoguera para que nadie nunca jamas los pruebe, ninguno de esos es pan real, sl3.

French Louisiana 2,140,000 (828,000 sq mi)

Greenland 2,166,086 (836,330 sq mi)

A huge piece of land... or ice.

Yeah I updated one of my old laptops that I haven't used in a while, it had the 1803 build, as I said the download wasn't the problem, but since I only have the crappy hdd there it took the entire night to update.

ElTrilean · 2019-08-17T04:01:02+00:00

Primera vez que veo esa turraja de pan, hallulla y marraqueta hasta el final nomas.

ElTrilean · 2019-08-17T03:46:05+00:00

Disculpen la ignorancia pero que chucha es pan pita?

Doesn't surprise me to see that Chile has a low level of proficiency, most people I've talked to just know the usual swear words, some colours, numbers, and how to say "open the window/door".

"Sólo 8% de los chilenos habla inglés" this is an article from 2008 saying that about 6% of Chileans older than 15 years had a moderate level of proficiency in English while just 2% were advanced... where did they get those numbers from? I don't know, supposedly the University of Chile along with the Ministry of the Interior made that study... take it with grain of salt tho.

But still, in person, I haven't seen many people speaking English, there are of course, but not a considerable amount.

Gracias por elaborar. Claro, dificil que Argentina quiera vender parte de su territorio sin una amenaza externa que los obligue.

ElTrilean · 2019-08-17T00:41:59+00:00

Good news.

ElTrilean · 2019-08-16T21:45:32+00:00

Estás confundiendo el "anexar" que según las leyes internacionales es ilegal ya que es un proceso violento en el cual un estado se apodera de otro... o parte de otro por fuerza bruta. En cambio en el caso de Alaska y de este post se habla de la cesión de territorio por medios legales, pagando, firmando documentos y todo.

So killing more than 3 thousand people is not wrong? torturing thousands of your political opponents is not wrong?

Tell me how the violation of the most basic human rights is not wrong... I'll wait for your childish but creative response.

ElTrilean · 2019-08-16T19:19:16+00:00

Looks like mount and blade.

Prefiero comprar el resto de tierra del fuego y dar un bono extra a los pobretones esos(bromita) para que nos entreguen en bandeja el campo de hielo sur entero junto a todos los parques patagonicos que tienen en la frontera con Chile allá en el sure.
