Latin America is mexico, Central America , South America (INCLUDING BRAZIL) and the caribbean countries such as Cuba, Purto Rico and Dominican Republic.

SO YES IS THE answer to your question...

From Mexico to the tip of Argentina is all considered Latin America including some Caribean countries. Latin America is divided by North, Central and South. North is basically Mexico. Central America is Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Belize, Nicaragua and Costa Rica. Panama not sure what they considered themselves Central American or South American but then you have your South American countries: Brazil, Chile, Venezuela, Colombia, Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay, Guyana and French Guyana, Suriname, Peru, and Bolivia.

Latin America is the name given to regions in the American Continent with a historic and cultural heritage coming from (among the aborigin influences) latin countries. Now, latin countries in Europe are: Portugal, Spain, Andorra, France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Italy, San Marino, Monaco, and Romania, with influences in some swiss cantons. Of all this nations, the only ones who established colonies in America were Spain, Portugal, and France. Hence, areas colonized by those countries, and with a noticeable influence from them still, are part of what you could call "Latin America": Almost all of South America (except from Guyana and Suriname, although they are formally included as Latin American countries for practical reasons), many caribbean countries, Central American nations, except Belize (although, once more, form practical reasons, it is included as part of Latin America, even though their language -English- isn't latin). And, one could still include even parts of the US, and the province of Quebec, in Canada, which is left out for practical resons, but is trully part of Latin America (so, Latin America, as might sometimes be interpreted, are not third world countries with no anglosaxon heritage, but ANY American country with strong, defining, latin heritage. Quebec, even though it is far from a third world community, is still latin, and still american.). Following this definition, Brazil is indeed a part of Latin America both in the practical and strict definitions.

No because Brazil is Portuguese. Brazil is not a Spanish-speaking country. therefore it is not part of Latin America

Latin America is both central and south America. also part of the Caribbean (Cuba, Dominican Republic, etc.
