  • Marcio Cota says:

    what does "gringo" means? lol

  • "Gringo" is a slang Spanish and Portuguese word used in Ibero-America, to denote foreigners, often from the United States. The term can be applied to someone who is actually a foreigner. Absorption from Spanish is also reflected in that the word usage is not naturally widespread and only generally in regions exposed to tourism like Rio de Janeiro. There, the word means basically any foreigner, North American, European or even Latin American. Generally it applies more to any English-speaking person, not necessarily based on race or skin color but on attitude and clothing.

    I hope it helps. you can check it out here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gringo.
