SUE,
You used the fact of portuguese be originay from latin as argument. Based is a similar reasoning, BRAZIL IS A GREEK COUNTRY, also, because our language has about 50% latin and 50% greek as origins. But, nobody say it.
Other: if to use latin words configure a nation as "latin", the United States is a latin country, because there are many latin words there. Hotel, consulation, annual, manual, velocity, city, excess, sucess, etc are all latin in origin.
Spain settled the USA (part), also, but this make them latinos?
I think that is a racist form to call others inferior race, because this is the stereotype of a "latino" and I'm not the person who has invented this.... |

You don't hablan español, but you DO speak Portuguese, right? And isn't Portuguese a Latin-based language? Doesn't that make you Latin?
After all, the definition of "Latin America" is that it is America, first, and second, that the language of the colonizers was Latin-based. So, yeah, Brazil is Latin...and, by the way, from what I understand, many Brazilians DO speak Spanish, even though it is not the official language. |

Brazilian culture is very different from the other spanish spanish speaking countries, both language wise and history/descend ency wise. But it does come from a Latin branch like Italian and spanish (which is why all three languages sound alike but each with being a language on it's own) but is it really Latin? Unless there is another category I believe Latin is as close as we can get but definitively NOT spanish. |

yes it is, first of all Brazil is in Latin America and second both spanish and portuguese come from Latin.that's why there is a lot of words that assimilate in both spanish and portuguese. |
