Latino Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description

A Latino is a person of Latin American heritage, or of the Latin American culture. The feminine form of the word is "Latina". "Latino" is a shortened form of the Spanish word for a Latin American individual, "latinoamericano."

In Italy, the term is sometimes used to denote a person from the Mezzogiorno, the region of the country located generally south of Rome, since in the Middle Ages this region had considerably less Celtic and Germanic influences than northern Italy; one example of this usage was those made by Dante in the Divine Comedy (Inferno, Canto XXII, line 65, and Canto XXIX, lines 90 and 92).
