from Latin Hispanicus, from Hispania 'Spain'.
In US English, Hispanic is the standard accepted term when referring to Spanish-speaking people living in the US. Other, more specific, terms such as Latino (for people of Latin American descent) and Chicano (for those of Mexican descent) are also used where occasion demands. With these words of Spanish origin, the feminine forms Latina and Chicana should be used when referring to women or girls. The masculine forms (with -o) are used when referring to both sexes together, or to men or boys. See also Chicano (usage).
