Gringo

Gringo ( /ˈɡrɪŋɡoʊ/, ) 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, or it can denote a strong association or assimilation into foreign (particularly US) society and culture. African Americans and Native Americans are sometimes an exception, but not always.
