Kid in my class: Who here is Spanish?
(No one raises their hand)
Kid in my class: You're Venezuelan (To me)
Me: Uhhh..... yes... I'm not from Spain
Kid: What's the difference
*The body was never found*
Ayyyy Venezuela, my country!
Ana Victoria Mi país 🇻🇪💙
sameeeeeee KAKAKAJ
YASSS QUEEN I CAN REALATE ON SOOO MANY DIFFERENT LEVELS
I get that but im cuban
The weirdest thing that I've heard a person say about my country (Uruguay) was: *"WOW, you've got Internet there?"* Seriously, dude, I don't live in a farm and wake up everyday at 5 am to milk cows.
And if I did I would *still* probably have Internet.
+Lou Tachibana i`m an uruguayan too... and i`m writing this in English, saludos xD
No es confuso no saber en qué idioma comentar en este canal?
Lou Tachibana Si jajaja
+Lou Tachibana You mean to say farmers can't have internet? ;)
- i am from Brazil
- Oh, do you speak spanish?
- no, portuguese
- is the same thing...
- no is not
- whats the difference?
- "eu adorei o seu sotaque" =
"me encantó tu acento"
THIS IS THE DIFFERENCE
I dont like brazilian accent D:
Petter Zev me neither
Petter Zev I love it, and I'm Costarrican, plus she is giving two examples of the same sentence, "I love your accent" in Spanish and portuguese, sure some people didn't get that.
Happens a lot to me
XD DX there are brother’s lenguages, they are like one lenguage plus catalan
i am brazilian, and most of brazilians here are complaining about the spanish thing, but, there is also another thibg: OUR CAPITAL IS BRASILIA. NOT SAO PAULO. NOT RIO. NOT BUENOS AIRES (This is not even in Brazil)!
is not? :) jocking
I thought it was Florionopolis
Isn't the capital city of Brasil called Samba?!
I thought it was Lisbon
JOKE
@@7Nachy JAJAJAJ
People hear that I'm from Nicaragua & ask what part of Mexico that's in. Drives me crazy every time.
Also I always get asked "do you speak Nicaraguan?"

Cindsrocksyo You would enjoy this Hello From Nicaragua :) czcams.com/video/FL5bd9Pj25Y/video.html
***** mexican isn't even a language how stupid can people be.
***** i read this wrong and for a moment i thought you were calling me stupid. im from oregon and wow !!! thats sad.
Cindsrocksyo I had the same thing happened to me, I am from Venezuela and I was asked do you speak Venezuelan? I couldn't believe my ears, so I decided to play with them, so I said yes, and I speak Mexican, Colombian, Argentina, Bolivia etc..The lady answered me, oh you speak so many languages!!! Lol..so I smile back yes I do.....I can't believe people are that stupid!!
***** You sound uneducated, sir, Mexico and Central America do have Spanish, African, and Asian people.
#1 Misconception: Latino/Hispanic is a race
Hispanic is a cultural heritage, and anyone can be or become Hispanic regardless of race.
ＭＡＮＧＡ Exactly. Super annoying.
ＭＡＮＧＡ It might as well be, when you mix two colors, such as red and white, you don't say it's half white and half red, you say it's pink.
No. Hispanic is just people from Spain. Read more.
ＭＡＮＧＡ ...and Latinos/Hispanics in USA usually refer to themselves as a race. I am Latino and I find particularly annoying this fact. The most interesting thing about our culture is precisely our diversity.
La Nueva Republica Hispanic is people that their native language is spanish
I'm from Chile and once I was asked if we had electricity in here....
was an American asked you that?
Javi Cofre, well that's a new one lol, people always assume im puerto rican when im actually Chilean, but was born and raised in the USA
Javi Cofré i know exactly what r u talking about . im from morocco somone ask how do you drive your cars in the desert 😒
How do you do that?? Jokin hahaha. A northern neighbor of your homeland here.
Soy chilena y salvadoreña; white people call me black, black people call me white, and latinos think I'm either Filipino or Puerto Rican.... I was raised in California and everybody always asks me if I speak Mexican
When I was living in New Zealand no one believe me when I said I was from Argentina, because I´m blond and milky white. The say: But people in Argentina is black!
And also: NOT ALL LATINOAMERICA IS EL CARIBE! Argentina has snow, mountains, jungle, deserts and really ugly beaches.
The worst one: WE ARE FROM AMERICA, BUT WE ARE NOT USA.
Burundanga I Know!! Lots of people in Argentina are what you can generally classify as "white".
The Queen in the Netherlands is originally from Argentina and has blond hair.
really ugly beaches me encantó
SOMEBODY FINALLY SAID IT (btw, Argentinian people don't say CHE BOLUDO to EVERY SINGLE PERSON WE SEE)
AGUANTE ARGENTINAAAA
Stereotype: that all latinos know how to dance salsa, merengue or another tropical dance!!! some people doesnt even like those tropical dances!
In fact, Chile is a cold country. Unlike many people may think about it, you know, "its a latin country, it must be tropical". Well, not, Chile is cold, in fact there are lots of ski courses, glaciers, fjords, etc..
alexos8741 you are right, Im chilean I don´t know a thing about salsa or merengue or whatever.
That's true ... Some of us don't even know how to dance
Emilia Leidich I'm from the north of Mexico and we don't listen to salsa music or merengue at all.
Yes indeed, Im from the south of mexico and here we do listen salsa music and dance merengue, rumba, cumbia, etc. Everything but not the crap music of "corridos" , "banda" and those sounds of narco shit!
Ok, not all Latinos are brown people. How's that for a misconception?
pl
+Moth Queen You're right, some of them work indoors.
NO BROWN PRIDE HERE !!! LOL
+Andy Obb eeeee panameño!!!! soy tambien uno :D
+Moth Queen That's a huge misconception, some people don't have that perfect mixed of white, black, and aboriginal that gives them that perfect Stereotypical Latino Brown, with nice Black hair! If you saw some one that 100% Black African, or 100% white European looking, you'd probably never guess that they can be Latins.
PEOPLE WHO ASSUME WE ALL HAVE TANS MY GOD
Puerto ricans 😂😂😂
IKR
A young colombian kid came up to me and asked if I was Chilean cause i was wearing my chilean jersey. I responded yes. He then proceeded to ask me why i was so white.
Mi prima de Iquique de intercambio en New York, le preguntan si ella en Chile vive en casa o en chozas...y ella le contesta "en choza..pero el Mercedes Benz lo dejo estacionado en el garage"....
YES. That can be very annoying. Or when they think Hispanic/Latino is a race in it of itself, so they assume you can't be Black or White and also be Hispanic/Latino, they just assume that all Hispanic/Latinos are Mestizos.
"Oh so you're a Latina?"
"yes"
"wow I didn't know you were Mexican"
"I'm not"
**awkward silence**
Yeah this real ignorant lady I used to work with when she found out my last name she goes "YOU'RE MEXICAN??!!" I chuckled and said "No my Dad was Cuban" I just laughed it off.
>they assume we're tan
Boy, I'm one pale motherfucker.
Same. Get burned quite easily lol. Oh, and I can't dance
based on your youtube profile name there is no chance for you to be from latin america or have any heritage from it. more eastern europe, russia like
Slaying Greyjoy That's not my real name, of course... But no, I think I'm of Swiss heritage, I think. I was born on Argentina, though, like the rest of my family.
Vriska Serket Slaying Greyjoy
And a lot of Argentinian's have a paler complection than other Latinx.
really. thats pretty interesting though. Because way back in the past a lot of people from europe immigrated to Argentina its possible that your grandparents where from switzerland.
Joana: we are not Spanish, Spanish is the language we speak
Brazil: am I a joke to u?
DUDS here let me Rephrase that
Joana: we are not Spanish,Spanish is the language we speak Except for Brazil they speak Portuguese (your welcome)
Dude, tots!
@@brianapoma4049 thanks kkkkkkkk
Guiana Francesa: and me?
Brasilians are not Latinos
I am Colombian NOT Columbian, No I don't sell drungs, and NO pablo escobar is not my uncle
+Matthew Camacho plata o plumo? JAJAJA just joking
+Matthew Camacho
Are you related to Shakira?
+Matthew Camacho I am Colombian also...and when you said "and no pablo escobar is not my uncle" i almost shit my pants!! is just really funny that they think that
+Matthew Camacho Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaajajajajajaja !!! No puedo con esto xD
+Matthew Camacho I´m venezuelan and i always think that the people of USA, knew part of our culture and global localization. Today, after 2 years living in the USA, i got some things to say. Random girl from medicine class, Venezuela is not a mexican state, Random guy from technology class, we know what a phone is, Random Guy from a unknown class, we are in some difficult times, so, the fact that we need to wait 5 hours to get the most basic things doesn´t means that we are a african country, Random Guy from unknown class, i´m venezuelan, not venezzian. I´m done with my rant.
-What are you?
-I am Latina.
-Oh really, where are you from?
-I am from brazil.
-But I thought you said you were Latina.
-BRAZIL IS A PART OF LATIN AMERICA
Leo's Channel thiiiiiiiiissssss
Misconceptions about latin america:
If you´re from Argentina, then you love football
if you´re from Colombia, then you sell drugs
if you are from Brazil, you know how to dance Samba
and on and on and on..
wait, isn't the football stereotype from Brazil? oh, so that's why they hate us
If you´re uruguayan you eat meat all the day :c
and if you're from peru you are an alpaca farmer
And if you are from Chile, you speak like crap
if you are from Argentina, you speak like an italian, use "sh" unless "y" or "ll", almost speaks spanglish and you are from Buenos Aires -.-'
Not all of us can dance salsa/bachata/merengue professionally. Or in my case, dance at all.
Not all of us are extremely charming and romantic and can get a date just by looking at someone.
Not all of us have small noses...
I think I'm letting out all my insecurities 😂😂😂😂😂
Looks like you born in US hahaha
Walkiria Antelo XD
Walkiria Antelo I can't dance, I'm really bad with spicy food and those latina curves.... I have none and NO I AM NOT FROM MEXICO AND YES I AM SURE OF THAT
Walkiria Antelo I do have a little nose hahaha
Walkiria Antelo so true
I'm pale af and because of that everyone always tells me "You can't be Brazilian/Latino, you're so white!" 🙄
Same here! , and they think white latinos are not a common thing, but i live in México and i can easily tell that half of my classmates are white too.
Alexia Priska Pane lol this is like in Mean Girls: "if you are from África why are you white?"
By their logic:
If you're from any spanish-speaking country in Latin America, you must to be native or mestizo. YOU MUST!
If you're from Brazil, you must to be black or taned. Oh, and dance samba while playing football too. YOU MUST!
And if you're from any latin american country, you speak "Mexican."
Fuckin racist
+Leonardo Meira yeah I'm from the uk however my dad is Peruvian and I've had 4 people ask if I was Chinese because I was a similar colour to Eastern Asia lmao
Im chileno and living in australia and everyone thinks I'm Mexican and calls me taco!
Sebastian Rojas este fue el mejor! 😂😂😂😂😂
Pucha que la cagan Los huevones Australianos.
THATS FUNNY!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂 taco!
These Australians are ignorant.
Can’t blame them! I’ve been to both countries and I can tell Mexicans and Chileans look alike ! And both love spicy food too!
6 - Not all Latin Americans speak Spanish, brazilians speak portuguese, Haitians speak French, Surinamese speak dutch...7- Southern of South america is very cold, don't come here with bikini!! 8- Have a lot white people in south america, only in Brazil has 100 million white people, is a third country with a largest Caucasian population in the world! And in Argentina 97 percent of population is white!
+Black & White preach!
Dem numbers tho. NOWADAYS in argentina the population of PURE european descent is 70 percent. In uruguay this number goes to 87. In Chile it was something around 30 percent.
+Black & White Suriname is not a Latin American country because they don't speak a Romance language.
Santiago Geffen I know! but for americans, surinamese are latinos!
+Black & White - Americans are not familiar with Suriname so therefore they wouldn't refer to Surinamese has Latino.
Ask the average American where is Suriname and they wouldn't know what Continent it's located let alone if they know if that country exist.
I'm Brazilian and NO I don't speak Spanish I am NOT Mexican and NO it is not "basically all the same thing" it's Portuguese not Spanish
+Isabelle soares The Weird thing is the Portuguese speakers understand Spanish better than Spanish speakers understand Portuguese.
its portagusse not spanish i can speak Spanish but im brazzzilian
I am Hispanic and I love Portuguese. eu peguei aulas e tive (ou de did tirei?) boas notas. nao tive dificultades pra diferençar ás linguas. somente que misturo as palavras mesmas como agora, tirei vs peguei
I do.
lol they ask me if speak brazilian what that means
I'm Brazilian, and people always think that we speak Spanish, when we don't it's Portuguese! Btw love to all my fellow Latinos.
They also think we speak "Mexican" 😆
To be fair, Portuguese is similar to Spanish...
It actually isn't tho
Spanish is closer to Italian Than any other language ,
Luis V Yeah
I have blond hair and freckles and when people see me with my dad they're like "Oh, that's interesting... I've never seen a Mexican with an adopted white kid." and I'm like "first of all: LATINOS CAN BE WHITE TOO!!! JUST CAUSE MY DAD IS SUPER TANNED AND I'M PALE AF IT DOESN'T MEAN I'M ADOPTED AND 2ND: WE ARE BRAZILIANS NOT MEXICANS!!! 😡"
Sorry you had to go through that
But if your mom is super tanned as well then you need to give it a second thought 😂😂
Luisa Messias same except im cuban
@@yazanalkhalaileh9518 not necessarily, my parents are tanned...me on the other hand, I'm still pale AF, I don't like the sun while they do, there's the difference 🤣🤣
Latinos can be every color
Born and raised in the USA. White people call me Hispanic. Sorry, I am not Hispanic. I am an America.
In America, a person of Irish descent is an American. A person of German descent is American descent. A person of Latino descent is . . . Hispanic.
*****
Sounds like Aussie are welcoming people.
+Rich X So you are Hispanic American or Italian American?
José María Piñón Cobelo
I am an American. I don't understand why on some forms there is a separate box to check off that asks if I am Hispanic.
Rich X Maybe you will be paid by the Government for being Hispanic... No idea. I am not American so I do not understand much of your problems, but we have our own issues of that kind also. It is in the human nature to make "tribes".
+Rich X Yeah, they love foreigners....www.sunshinecoastdaily.com.au/news/australia-poster-dont-come-here-youll-die/2420160/
Many people think that Chile, Argentina and Uruguay are tropical countries...
-.-
Cuando dije q era chilena me preguntaron en que parte de México estaba eso :"(
@@SunnyPapayaa Mi amiga gringa pensó que Puerto Rico estaba en el medio de México. Puerto Rico es una ISLA. 🤣
@@luzbiz9668 y por eso es tropical...?
I know like I live in Chile and it’s actually really dry and cold.
Jajaja que venga en invierno a que lo acaricie el pampero un ratito
"Different foods, different cultures, different infamous dictators..." tru
ikr...
Puerto Rico never had a dictator. We went from government control from Spain to USA overnight .
+Luis V our government still fucked tho😞
true our government is f'ed up
Person: " Where are you from"
Me: " I'm from El Salvador "
Person: " where in Mexico is El Salvador"
I try so hard not to hurt them 😤😂
THEY ARE ASKING YOU , Avenida México EN El Salvador!!!😂
Jaja chale soy Mexicano pero aun así somos los más esterotipados
But where in Mexico is El Salvador though?? 🤔
It's insane how so many people think South of the US is all México
Ive heard the phrase "Mexican countries" too many times.
THERE IS ONLY ONE MEXICAN COUNTRY:. MEXICO!
Accents. Sometimes people ask me if I was born and raised in PR because I don't have an accent when I speak English. I freakin live in PR. Not all Latinos speak like Sofia Vergara.
Sofia actually speaks without as much of an accent as she uses in commercials and Modern Family. That was requested by the showrunners of the sitcom.
In fact PR, in spanish has strong accent, what is puñeta means? I listened to speak people here in NYC all the time.
THANK YOU. Like buh I know inglis and español, deal with it Karen
Everybody has an accent. You can't speak any language without an accent because an accent is the way you pronounce words.
@@Gameflyer001 false, she speaks like that in real life. she said so herself
I haaaaaate when someone asks me "are you mexican?" and I respond saying " no, I'm actually Nicaraguan" and then they respond by saying "oh same thing" 😑 if it is the same thing don't you think I would have said yes to your first question?! This infuriates me! It's a completely different country!! And no I don't eat spicy food😠
Scharon Diaz yes yes yes. I'm Nicaraguan too and it gets under my skin so much to hear that.
do you really expect people (like if it is their duty to know where the fuck you are from) in their own country to know where your country is at?do you have a culture or anything that differentiates your country from others? if not stop complaining.
Actually yes, every Latino country differs in dialect, accent, food, tradition, and overall culture. No one country is exactly like another. For example, a Dominican usually has nothing in common with a mexican other than the fact that they both speak Spanish, and even then they speak using different words and completely different accents. And no one expects you to have the duty of knowing where we are from but if you ask and then have the audacity to make it same like "we are all the same" it can come off as pretty disrespectful.. It is also not "our duty" to have to try to alleviate some rude persons ignorance. Not trying to be disrespectful but this topics can get crazy. Being a Latina myself and also taking a Latin American studies class, I know what I am talking about. Sorry for the essay.
SAME ITS SO GOSHDAMN ANNOYING! (I'm from Venezuela btw)
@@franciscougartr2415 dude. It's dumb when people know Mexico is a country. And you say I'm from a COUNTRY called Venezuela (my country btw) And they STILL think you're Mexican. Heck I tell people Im NOT Mexican and they STILL call me Mexican. I even tell people Mexican is a nationality NOT a race.
So I'm just mad at people's ignorance, not lack of knowledge.
My art teacher- "Oh ur brazilian, are u from Buenos Aires?"
Me- "No that's Argentina!"
My art teacher- "close enough "
🙈
🙈🙈
That's sad coming from a teacher lol we're fucked
LOL
Caralho, 😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
Someone in culinary class: "Sooo... you're gonna cook some tacos, aren't you?"
Me: That's mexican, i'm... venezuelan.
Him: *confused af*
I never thought of cooking tacos. I know you cook them, but I never used that word for tacos. Me and my family always said "made"
And no, you didn't ask. Just something I thought about
Also, not all latinos speak spanish like Haitians and Brazilians!
Peter Geramin haiti is not a latin country
same
French Guaiana
Haiti is not Latin. Brazil is arguable.
David Boucard actually Haiti is also arguable with belize aswell
"Youre peruvian? do you have a pet llama?"
where the heck i'm going to have a llama when I can''t deal with own dogs
Desiree Jacobi LOL " Pet llama" so cute !
"Everything I know about Peru is based on The Emperor's New Groove."
***** LOL
Desiree Jacobi i relate 😭😂🇵🇪
Omg Im peruvian too and that happened to me so many times 🤣
I'm from Guatemala and I was once asked if we lived in trees. Like whaaat? Why would I live on a tree?
es lo mismo con argentina jajaja
+Bruno Silva ¿Por qué piensan que vivimos en los árboles? jajaja.
porque son tontos
Valerie Vasquez Ellos son tan brutos
gueros son la gente más pendeja
1. We’re not all immigrants
2. We speak Spanish not Mexican.
3. Not every immigrant is Latino...
Those were just a few that Joana missed
6. No todos bailamos bien y no todos sabemos bailar los bailes tradicionales de nuestros países (las veces que me preguntaron cómo se baila el tango por el hecho de que soy argentina y en mi puta vida lo hice)
+Agus Cesio JAJAJAJA
+Agus Cesio Pero, encima, el tango es más porteño que argentino.
+Agus Cesio Yo lo tuve que bailar en ajrdín y nunca mas, solo por el dia de la diversidad cultural. Eramos nenes, nadie bailaba bien. No sabemos bailar ni tango ni chacarera como en muchos otros paises (por no decir todos) tampoco la mayoria de la gente sabe los bailes de la musica de su pais. No se porque hay gente de otras culturas que no lo entiende..
+Agus Cesio Yo no tengo la más remota idea de cómo se baila el jarabe tapatío, gracias!
sii! una alemana me quería ver bailar y le dije que no bailo, que soy como un árbol, tipo el tronco y me dijo "pero si soos latinaa" y le dije que soy un árbol latino. jajajajaja
WE DONT ALL SPEAK SPANISH. I'm Brazilian, I speak PORTUGUESE. And no, THEY'RE NOT THE SAME THING
Spanish puts tildes over the n, you put tildes over the a. Same difference.
Meirstein we don't put tildes over the n 🙄
😂😂😂 I’m learning Portuguese
Lex W. We brazilians are south americans and never latino
Actually brazilians are latinos. Just not Hispanic
Different infamous dictators...
For Dominicans its Trujillo
And you can't forget the two most famous ones (probably): Cuba's Fidel Castro & Argentina's Juan Peron (Che Guevara wasn't a dictator but is also famous for similar reasons)
Diauts and Trujiiiiii
Eugenia Ol Yes, Dominican Republic's Rafael Trujillo
Diauts yup
person: "Where are you from?"
me: "Ecuador"
person: "What's that?"
me: "It's a country."
person: *starts to get confused* "Where?"
me: "... In South America"
person: "Hm, never heard of that."
FashionByVanessa viva ecuador!
Vanessa Guaraca can relate
Well you have to be honest no one has ever heard of Ecuador not even the own Latinos all I know of Ecuador and not to be mean are that they have the same colors as the Colombian flag a singer from CNCO it’s from their of course the Ecuador Line where it’s hotter and that’s pretty much it!
@@starvaleri8777 well...we have alike flags, with Colombia and Venezuela because we were part of something called Gran Colombia, I know you're just worried about your Instagram probably. But, if you know how much money Kim kardashian has I her purse this week, you could make an effort and read a little history about countries in American continent 😉 so then, you could realize about differences between countries and stop being so dumbass.
Hunter Havok Lol, I think you judge me too soon, yeah I also hate those type of girls. I don’t even get to instagram, and i don’t care about those girls 😂. I more interested on geography and languages lol. I still know a little about Ecuador last time I was about to watch a video about Ecuador but i was never mind. Yeah, I knew that they were together and that’s the reason why they have similar flags. In this case that’s all I know about Ecuador. But you are good, that was a great commentary about those type of girls that’s what I tell my friends lol. You can ask them about those girls and they’ll know everything! They just worry about their Social Media and etc. But I’m different 😌
In freshman year of high school I was in the advanced Spanish and someone asked "Are you Mexican?" and I replied with, "No, I'm Chilean." to which they respond with; "That's just the same thing." I then sat there with this look on my face 😐
I'd YELL.
I’ve been asked “what part of Mexico is Chile in?”
OMG
I just love this channel...
I just knew about flama because I'm Brazilian and saw the things we r sick of hearing...
But this channel is amazing...
In fact I'm really learning about some things of latina America culture...
Keep it up...

Iguana is in fact eaten in Nicaragua. I've never had it, but it's a thing.

Someone from Guerrero told me they ate iguana and killed it themselves.

XD
+Alberto Arias eso sí me kbrea!!! Panamá nunca le perteneció a Colombia, nosotros fuimos parte de la Gran Colombia que constaba de la unión de varios paises (Colombia, Venezuela, Panamá, Bolivia...)
La verdad no.La gran Colombia se disolvió en 1831, de ahí en adelante fueron venezuela, ecuador y Nueva Granada. Panamá se independizo de Colombia en 1903, como consecuencia del fracaso de los franceses en el canal, la tensión política, social, bélica y económica de Colombia en ese momento y la intromisión de EEUU.
E históricamente hablando, Panamá no es mencionada como parte de la Gran Colombia porque contrario a Nueva Granada, Venezuela y Ecuador, Panamá no era un estado, era una capitanía. y .... Bolivia, en serio?!!! has visto un mapa?, hay todo un Perú de por medio.
I'm from Argentina, and when I say that, everybody be like "ohhhh socceeerrr, meessiiii, maradonnaaaaaa" I DON'T GIVE A F*CK ABOUT SOCCER! e_é .l.

Once I went to summer camp , all the american kids were like OMG YOURE MEXICAN?! but you're white! do you ride a burro to school? do you like sleep under a cactus? Sombreros are your thing right? OMG LETS GO TO TACO BELL!
1. I live in Mexico city and most of the people I know are white.
2. No, i have a car. Ever heard of those machines with wheels?
3. Im pretty sure i live in a house but let me check...
4. I have never worn a "sombrero" and please get a dictionary because sombrero means hat, not your cinco de mayo hat. just hat. Oh and by the way we don't celebrate cinco de mayo. what even is that?
5. Taco Bell is an insult to Mexican food. Its literally disgusting. We don't do hard shells or dorito shells or put bacon in a quesadilla. A taco is a warm tortilla with meat inside it, a flauta is a fried taco with cream and lettuce on it, and a quesadilla is a tortilla with only cheese inside it, maybe salsa and it is not pronounced cuesadila,
I'm Colombian and people automatically think I sell drugs. And Pablo Escobar is my uncle -_-
+Sirgamer64 The Escobar thing is kind of funny. I don'r know who is him by the way.
***** Pablo Escobar is a very famous narc. Look him up his series on Netflix is extremely interesting!
Sirgamer64 I hate it when people are so ignorant and they don't look beyond stenotypes and the news! It frustrates me so much!
Really? You are Mexican and don't know what the celebration of 5 de mayo is, even though is not celebrated in all Mexico? Shame on you, yes shame on you. It is part of our history. Go back and found out what it is. GOSH!!!!
I'm white and I'm latino. Specifically, brazillian latino. No, I don't speak spanish, I actually speak portuguese - just like the whole freaking Brazil! - . Being a latino is a matter related to the cultural experiences acquireds of an individual, the perspectives observed on its daily life and mainly: self-identification. Don't get fooled by my surname, guys!
Viktor Kotkiewicz don't exist brazilian latino dude ! Just south american
You are latino if you speak a latin lenguage in the continent america like; spanish, portuguese, french, italian, romanian being the most inportants and then, galician, catalan, occitan, sardinian, rhaeto-romance, leonese, aranese, picard, friulian, sicilian, etc
6 - Brazilian speaks portuguese not spanish.
7 - Brazil is not not Latin America. It is Latin America, fact
lol
8 - Not all Brazilians can dance.
Actually there is some Spanish speaking regions in Brazil
Eu sou chileno e tenho certeca que voces falam Portuguese.
Bolsonaro esta facendo um bom trabaho no Brasil.
Same problem with us Moroccans. Saudi Arabia is like the Mexico of the Arab world, anything they do, everyone thinks all Arabs do. Wtf is a turban for? Hahaha
Exactly I'm from Egypt and everyone thinks I wear the clothes they wear in Saudi Arabia it so annoying
Maria Noordino Because the Arabian Gulf countries kept the Arabic values and the traditional clothes....the pride of the Arabia even after World War II. However, most North African countries such as Egypt, Morocco, are imitating the Western Countries of wearing the same clothes. They lost the value. Wearing suit with tie, or jeans is not even considered Arabic customs.
Chavezoid ahhaha thanks! :)
mkm90210 Well you can't really blame us for being influenced by western cultures, because firstly, Morocco, Tunisia, and Algeria were colonized by the French for many years, and Egypt by the British, so of course there are remnants of history's influence on us today. Secondly, Morocco's population is heavily mixed with Berbers, who have nothing to do with Arab blood. But even so, us Moroccans still managed to maintain our own customs in terms of clothing too; we were never influenced the middle eastern clothing customs, we have our very own traditional ones that we still wear today, it's called a Jalaba.
Maria Noordino Well here are 2 serous question for you then:
1) Is there a proper term to racially describe the peoples of the Middle East? The term "Middle Eastern people" doesn't seem to me to be a proper term to racially describe the people of the Middle East and, quite frankly, it's too long of a word. At one time I used the word Persian, but I've learned that only refers to Iranians or Iraqis I think. The term "Arabs" I would think is one to only describe the race of people you would find as the majority on the Arabian peninsula and its surrounding areas. It seems there are several different kinds of people that live in the Middle East, so inventing a term like "Middle Easterner" doesn't seem right. What exactly is the proper term?
2) Who exactly are Berbers and what do they look like typically? Do they look like darker skinned Arabs? Are they a race of people that probably originated from a mix of blacks and Arabs? Are they the ones who later became Moors, took over Spain, and mixed into the Spanish population?
Maria Noordino Not sure who thinks a turban is associated with an Arab, but I associate it with a Sikh and assume that person is from India.
It is beleived that we eat only arroz con pollo
mvtnNJ or beans
arroz con pollo y huevo frito....hmmmmm
well, we do
I think mom coocked arroz con pollo today. Sorry i'm not helping at all.

I hate when people assume that you must speak spanish to be latino, I mean, i'm from brazil and speak portuguese but that does not make me any less latina than anyone else from latin america
I want to learn potuguesse
Yeah tell the french they speak spanish.... ( they are also latin ) or Italians or me ( romanian )
-Are you mexican?

I just had a conversation with my class and I said. Oh I'm not white I'm Latino. Everyone got sooooooo angry saying " No you're white, look at your skin", "no you're American". " You're white"
Let's just say I cried for hours after that.
Oh god I feel you dude/girl, I’m super insecure about how pale I am and it doesn’t help that my family always bullies me for it. I’m basically the black sheep of the family.
@@cupio-stardust you mean the white sheep /JUST SUPER JOKING DON'T GET MAD AT ME
I'm from Brazil and a lot of people ask if I live in the jungle and if I dance samba and I was like: “Dude Just stop” and sometimes they also ask if I speak Spanish
"Karen, You can't just ask someone why they're white!"
I met this girl from Ukraine who said that in her coutry people belived that in Argentina girls were all beautiful (I'm flattered) guys were all short and of a big nose *????!?!?!?!?!* and we dance tango all day long

When my sister went to France as an exchange student they asked her if Argentina had electricity, if she'd come by boat (instead of by plane, because planes are technology, or something?) and some asked her in what part of Spain Argentina was LOL.

I once was talking with a british girl and when I said I was from Venezuela she said "Oh! is that near China?" and then I said that we're in south america and she thought I was talking about the south of fucking uniTED STATES LIKE WHAT THE FUCK GIRL DO YOU NEED A MOTHERFUCKING MAP OR SOMETHING?
I want to add that when she thought I was talking about the south of united states she said "So... you're like from Alaska"
South... Alaska... Really?
HAHAHAHAHA. THE SAME THING HAPPENS TO ME. So when they ask where am I from I say Venezuela and immediately say "It's in south america, like, do you know where Colombia is?"
+Andrea Gonzalez Not to play devils advocate here, but I sure as hell don't know were all the countries in Europe, Asia, Africa, and so on are, so why would all the Europeans or Africans or Asians know were all the countries in America are?

Or when people think that Latino is a race. Latin America is a very diverse region and people of any race can be Latino.
First, there are Latins that don't speak spanish (like Brazilians like me, Italians, French, etc). But oddly (some) brazilians 'forget' that we are Latins too.
Humberto Ramos Costa latino not latin lmao stop trying to sound smart.
"Hispanic" is the word to define Hispanics. We Brazilians are Latinos.
The problem is that in english, 'latino' is almost used in a pejorative context, the 'coorect neutral' term would be latin. In portuguese we have Just one word, so...
Trueee
Felipe Fgd I would agree
despues de leer muchos de los comentarios me da mucha pena q los latinos seamos tan desunidos, ojala nuetras mentes se abrieran a ser todos hermanos y valorar todo lo q somos.
+JR VideoRecording Los Latinos no existen, los Romanos se los chingaron en el siglo I después de Cristo. De que hablas?
+Oscar Zapien q sabio eres seguro cristo te lleno de sabiduria
+JR VideoRecording never. I'm pancolombian and nothing else.
+Oscar Zapien La concepción de latino viene del siglo XIX y es una fosilización del término. El término nació en un país latinoamericano y se ha mantenido durante bastante tiempo hasta el punto de ser lexicalizado. Hasta Napoleón se refirió a nosotros como Latinoamerica; no se lo inventaron los gringos. Ahora, "latino" es un término igualmente válido a gran escala ya que compartimos varias cosas, no solo un idioma.
Perfect....
The other day i went to a dance with a guy and i told him i wasn't that good at dancing. He told me But you are latina i thought you would be a good dancer and i was like... not every latino is a good dancer!!! I live in Canada and everyone thinks i'm from mexico just because i speak spanish. It's kinda annoying sometimes.
True I can't dance for crap

Why is it that Mcdonald's employees always act like their job is on the line when I ask for extra sauce??
We're you born in Canada? If you do then you tell them you're Canadian. Or if you were born in the States then you're American. If you're born somewhere else and are Canadian second then you're whatever-American
smokinbull123 Are you Latino or another type of non-Anglo ethnicity? I've tried your approach before and it has *never* worked. The person will just say something like "I know that, but where are you *really* from?". If you aren't white then nobody thinks you are "American American".
PSYCHOLOGYZOOM Maybe, because they feel like your fatass doesnt need any extra sauce, for fucks sake your already eating at one of the unhealthiest places in the world, and then to ask for extra, processed sauce!

I thought only Negras came from colombia
Yes! Going through the comments I thought, "am I the only one who has heard this?" I got pissed off because that was the sole reason guys wanted to get with me and no other reason. Made me feel like a toy
@@mommajordaan898 yeah. You're not alone. Either because they think Latinos are hot in bed or they have never been with a Latino. Like we're collectibles.
Mexican one GETS ON MY NERVES SO BAD. I am Colombian and because I have blue eyes people think I am white . (Which I am, you can be white AND Colombian). But here in California it's mostly just MExicans and they often look at me like I am a martian because I am white and I speak "their" language! I even almost got into a fight with one mexican guy because he insisted I am also mexican just because I speak spanish. "we are all mexicans at the end of the day". I told him I have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with mexico, its culture, or its people. I am from Colombia and he got offended!!!
Mexican? No way. You look Arab to me. Basque and proud!!
wtf O.O
Que loco! (el mexicano ese)
maloff magaloff there's white Mexican people. So if ur white asf and speak Spanish we think ur Mexican. Just tell them clearly never fight with a Mexican bru u gonna get fucked up
Oof, what part of Colombia. I'm from Baranquilla.
I am latino and I am proud.
***** Proud of what? For accidentally being born latino? What if you were born Chinese?
***** I am proud to be Mexican :)
silvia tiana
But you didn't achieve anything by being Mexican. It was an accident of birth. What does your statement mean?
Lcarpetron shut up troll!!!
kokkil
I'm not trolling. The reason you say shut up is because you have no answers to my questions to those other people, and you can't stand it.
I HATE it when people say all latinos dance well, i mean i wish but no
Sofia Santana I discovered on a trip that the dancing stereotype wasn't much because we're "good" at it, but because most americans SUUUUUUUUCK at dancing! I consider myself to be a terrible/mediocre dancer, but when I saw americans dance they were so bad I looked decent in comparison... funny thing.
Yes because we feel like disappointment
I hate that stereotype but I do dance salsa.
American: Do you speak Spanish
Me: No. I'm from Brazil.
American: So do you speak Brazilian?
Me: No, I speak portuguese? Do you speak American?
Okay but you don’t have to be rude like the way this comment comes off obviously you could explain in a nicer way
Why would we know what you speak?
I don’t expect people to know we speak English
los gringos antes de venir a Chile piensan que acá comemos aji y que cuidamos ovejitas o cosas asi muy random, y cuando llegan se sorprenden de que parecemos más un país europeo, no se si es ignorancia o falta de cultura de los americanos la verdad.
Si pero si comparas Chile con los demas países sudamericanos, la pobreza es mínima, en ese sentido te digo que se acerca más a un país europeo.
+Pablo Martinic
Más bien ocultan la pobreza poniendo un edificio delante de las casas de los barriobajeros.
Los de la OCDE son muy buenos ocultando pobreza.
jaja para nada, la pobreza es bajisima acá
Estadísticas muestran que la pobreza en Chile ronda por el 30-40%
Usando los métodos de medición de pobreza de la OCDE, claro.
México cuenta con 50% de pobreza según la OCDE.
Y viendo las medidas de la UNASUR, México tiene 20% de pobreza

LA DE QUE NO SOMOS TODOS MEXICANOS ES DEMASIADO REAL
I'm but yeah, it's a serious problem, everybody always think that everyone who speaks Spanish or Portuguese are Mexican, they even confuse Indians with Mexicans like...... What I hate is that Mexico is actually pretty diverse in culture and races. We don't look all the same way and that's what I love about my country, but whatever the only important thing is that every country is special an beautiful and if someone doesn't know about it then we'll teach them and let them be part of that diversity
I hate it when people asume we all like spicy food.

Después de darme un viajecito de un 2 años por el mundo, te dejo otros con los que me he topado:
1. No todos los latinos bailamos como Jennifer Lopez, y por cierto no todos bailamos salsa (aunque debo decir que en términos relativos bailamos ligeramente mejor que el resto del mundo)
2. América es un continente, no un país... y nosotros somos centro y del sur del continente, los chicos buenos.. los otros con los que nos confunden son los del norte y se llaman Estados Unidos de América
3. Si aprendió un poco de español en España y se quiere ir a viajar por América Latina, nada le garantiza que va a poder entender todo lo que le dicen. Hay muchos acentos distintos y modismos dependiendo del país donde vaya, incluso la misma palabra tiene diferentes significados dependiendo del país que visite. Nos llaman latinoamérica porque hablamos lenguas que tienen una raíz común, el latín. Por cierto el idioma predominante de latinoamerica es español, pero también esta incluido el portugués de nuestros amigos de Brasil. Como dije la mayoría hablamos español, y SOMOS EL SEGUNDO IDIOMA CON MAS HABLANTES NATIVOS DEL MUNDO, después del chino y bueno... hay hartos chinos. Así es que empiecen a considerar aprenden español.
4. Los de las paellas son los Españoles... nosotros tenemos otro tipo de comidas.
5. Nos gusta tocarnos, somos gente cálida que se abraza y da besos... eso NO QUIERE DECIR que queramos follar todo el día. (bueeee.... eso queda para cada quien)
6. Si usted va a latinoamerica, y camina tranquilamente por la calle, estas son las cosas que usted cree que le pasarán, pero créame que no es así: Le van a disparar porque le vieron cara de gringo, le van a robar todas sus pertenencias incluyendo la ropa y tendrá que caminar desnudo por la calle, será raptado por las FARC, todo el mundo le ofrecerá droga. Tenemos algunos problemas en algunos países con respecto a esto, pero no es tan grave como usted cree. Vaya tranquilo
7. No todos somos marginales ni vivimos en la pobreza como nuestros amigos de Estados Unidos de América nos muestran en sus películas. Aunque usted no lo crea somos personas normales y con educación también
Muchas gracias por el video, está buenísimo.. esperando la segunda parte.
Cuando no estás allá te das cuenta que los latinos somos muy parecidos. Que lindo sería que fuéramos una comunidad como la Unión Europea y echáramos para adelante todos juntos... soñar es gratis
Un abrazo a toda mi gente linda de latinoamerica!!

6. OUR FOOD IS NOT SPICY
but the food is spicy lol
It is in Mexico
PANIC!
+Alejandro Gonzalez compared to what? :D
Many South American countries such as Argentina cool very bland meals in comparison to Mexico. They cook much more similar to Europe.
WHAT I HATE SO MUCH IS WHEN PEOPLE SAY ,"STOP SPEAKING MEXICAN".
And, actually, not all of latinos say spanish!!! Here, in brazil, we speak portuguese
Who cares. We're speaking about Spanish speakers in general -.-
+CREK ANIMS Sorry but there is not such a thing as modified Portuguese. Brazilians speak Portuguese so do people from several countries including Portugal. It is a huge mistake to ignore the fact that Brazilians are as Latino as Mexicans are, yet 210 million people speak Portuguese in the largest country in Latin America.
+loka louis latinos na visão mericana quer dizer hispanos por que uma população enorrrme por lá. É meio confuso mas é assim.
+CREK ANIMS dude! latin americans who speak spanish (including me) also have a modified spanish... don't do that... ur screwing our image, dude!
Hahahah, I was just saying guys, don't attack crek, probably it sound bad as you read my last comment... I'll just delete the comment...
#SouthAmerica
#LatinAmerica
#Colombia
You forgot to say that in Brazil we don't speak spanish as the others countries in latin america, we're sick of hearing it, tired, exhausted
well in that case she also forgot to say that Haiti they dont speak Spanish, they speak French.
I don’t think people from Haiti think they are Latinos though...
I fricking HATE when people tell me taco bell is “authentic” mexican food, as well as chipotle and hard shell tacos...
Aly Skyfall It annoys me too lol
I found it funny where she says “ We're not all Mexican!" My response was “But I am";) I don't know why I smirked.

you forgot the biggest of them all... BRAZILIANS DON'T SPEAK ESPAÑOL WE SPEAK PORTUGUÊS.
Marcus Vinicius Sousa de Jesus Portuguesinho ^^
no
Espanhol**
Marcus Vinicius Sousa de Jesus this video is basically only for Latino Hispanics, she not Brazilian so she wouldn’t know nothing about you guys
Can’t blame them, Spanish and Portuguese are very related.. don’t tell me Americans also tell you that you don’t look Latino because you are so white ! Hahaha
I went to a summer course that was attended by international teens and we had a class in which they said "what are the stereotypes you know about their countries" and it was eye opening
American: Oh you are Peruvian, I love tacos!!
Me:...
My friend is from Peru so I mess with him about shit like that
Oh man, this slayed me XD
this happened to a friend during a trip to Orlando
her: I am from Colombia
random US person: Oh so you live on trees right? it must be really cool to to you be in a city.
Over 10 years ago, my Colombian friend did a year of high school abroad in Japan and whenever people asked him questions about Colombia, he would tell them that everyone lives in tree houses in the jungle, wears leopard pelts, and goes from place to place by swinging on vines. Sometimes I wonder how many of those people still to this day believe that all Colombians live like George of the Jungle.
pero cómo tan bruta esa persona jajajaja se pasó!
Spanish people doesn't talk weird. We have an accent, like people form Mexico, Argentica, Perú and every other country that speak Spanish.
Viva España y vivan todos los países que hablan el español!
+LaGataRusa El acento Español es muy lindo, pero no el de los doblajes (sin ofender, no me gusta), ojalá en los doblajes lo dejaran como es en realidad.

As a pale Dominican myself who has been questioned whether I'm Dominican or not, the question still stands:
What does 'Latino' actually look like???
FriedWaffle Amen!!
Pale Dominican ? Wtf? Hahaha good one !
Exactly!
"You are too quiet to be a latina"
"Oh, are you a foreigner? But u are white"
One that I would like to put on the table is that if you look like a "typical Black woman from the hood", that you can not, by any circumstance, be a latina, or speak Spanish. Let's not forget that thousands of Africans were dropped off in South America. I'm Afro-Cuban, btw.
Joanna Gipson uh Cuba's in North America
Thank you for stating this Joanna!!!
Rocio Castillo No problem! I think it's important that more people are educated on the history of the Hispanic culture. There is so much diversity and beauty. It's time that we embrace all aspects and skin tones that we bring to the table♡♡
Josue Rodriguez ♡ Thank you for being proud of your African heritage also. Too many deny the fact that, yes, they do possess "a few drops" of Mother Africa.
Joanna Gipson +Josue Rodriguez ... oh it's more than just "a few drops." Especially in the Latin-Caribbean, Venezuela, and Colombia there are pure blacks, with no mix, and they are as Latino as any brown or white Latino.
THANK YOU!Finally someone is speaking the truth about these convoluted stereotypes
Maya Adair She be preachin'
FLAMA You forgot stealing...... I like stealing : )
people: where are you from?

Same problem here
romi janne I'm half Mexican and people say I look like a darker Italian or a darker Portuguese Pearson
romi janne became u have blood from Spain
Clorox bleach well for me I have mostly Spanish blood but I have pretty white skin people say I just look white
I actually look Arab. And also someone ask me one time if I was from the US. And I was like dude how exactly do I look like a gringo
Saying every Latino is Mexican, is like saying every Asian is Chinese. Is that true? No.
#1 misconception about "Latinos" is... that "Latino" actually means something. The only country in Latin America I can honestly say I feel an affinity with is Bolivia, and that's because my parents are from there and I've lived there. I've been to Peru, Venezuela and the Dominican Republic, but I don't necesarily feel any affinity with those countries or know anything more about them than anyone else. Why should appending the label "latino" suddenly make them "my people"? This isn't to say I feel any antagonism towards those countries, just that, despite being "latino", I'm not any more an authority on them than an Austrian or a Kenyan.
I hate that there's basically no distinction between being Mexican-American and being Mexican in the US. I was born and raised in Mexico and hate no ties to the US whatsoever, so it's annoying that if I decided to live there people would think I'm an American citizen.
Why describe yourself as Mexican if you've never lived or even been here? That's very annoying to me.
have no ties*
Exospheredweller
Yeah really just meant Mexican and Mexican-American as ethnicities rather than `races´. A Mexican person´s culture is very very different to a child whose parents are Mexican but was born and raised in the US and that´s my whole point.
*****
But your culture is different to that of a Mexican born and raised in Mexico.
Dulce Ximena BO I think your DNA is what should matter not make belief lines. Being born somewhere doesn't make you from there, that's stupid. White people don't belong in North America, their skin is white because they are from cold European climate not hot American climate, this is native land.
Exospheredweller
Again, I´m talking about culture, not physical appearance.
Also another thing that i've heard but fortunately not been told is:
Do you live like in the forest? Some people of 1st world countries think Colombia is all Amazonas.... ahh plus they write Columbia... which just sickens me... 🙄😑😒
"All latinos eat spicy food " im Puerto Rican and nothing I've eaten or cooked has been spicy unless u choose to add hot sauce

people r sooo stereo typical
+Dania Ruth I went to México city and all food, even candies were spicy. It was almost impossible for me to eat since I am allergic to spicy. Last year I went to cancún and food was ok as the hotel served international food. I confirm the mexican food is totaly spicy. Even rice has chile.

@ngeles S! I find it really offensive that all of you get mad about being called Mexican what's wrong with Mexicans
We hate getting called something that we are not. Nothing wrong with Mexicans or being Mexican, of course. Just want to be described as what I actually am. I'm sure you can understand that.
Juan Imai nah fam I can’t actually cuz all of you always say it like there is something wrong with being Mexican all of you respond in a bad way
Juan Acosta im mexican american and i understand you, not all latinos are mexicans like seriously
