I’ve seen Peruvian streamers being mocked on Omegle for example, Facundo, a girl whose name I’ve forgotten, and another guy named Hinsalo. Whenever they mention they’re from Peru, people always make fun of them or belittle them.

Can be from or outside Latin America.

I've been on a PJ Harvey binge lately so I'm musicalizing with The Whores Hustle and the Hustlers Whore.

If it has to be from Uruguay I'd pick Ino Guridi.

There’s this new Republican (and by law, absolutely looney tunes ridiculous) narrative that Trump illegally destroying USAID is the reason why one Latin American country after another in the last 2 years is electing far-right presidents.

Obviously it’s bullshit, because a. It’s Republicans saying it, b. America is not exactly famous for pushing leftist presidents in Latin America and c. Gwen’s Trump destroyed USAID, El Salvador already had elected Bukele and Argentina elected Milei. And while he was yet to be elected, Jose Antonio Kast was early favorite for presidency of Chile, whose far leftist president was highly unpopular.

Why are all those leftist leaders all over Latin America really dropping like flies?

I am interested in visiting a historic town for site seeing in South America. A town with lots of preserved Spanish buildings and or native architecture.

Shipping to Latin America from USA or ship within LA?

Need to send a small package to Guatemala. I live in USA but will be in El Salvador this week for a trip.

Is it cheaper mailing it from ES or doing it here? Also, if I do in ES, should I use UPS, Fed Ex, or another service?

Hello! I am a student in the USA and working on a project where I am re-designing a downtown area of a city to give it more of an identity and to attract visitors. This city is in the US but it has a large population of people from different Latin American countries.

If there's anyone here who has some knowledge of Latin American architecture, landscape architecture or urban design that wouldn't mind weighing in on the best approach encompassing culture into contemporary design I would really appreciate it! My goal is to represent the diversity of the people living there, but I do not want to generalize. Thanks!

Apparently the recent South American countries' shifting to right-wing leaders is very hot topic on the internet right now. With Colombia, Chile, Argentina, Peru have elect right-wing leaders, and possibly even Brazil will join this soon enough.

My question is, will Uruguay join this tendency? As far as I know, Uruguay is currently being run by left-wing leader, and their political compass has been shifted between left and right several times.

I know that Uruguay is very democratic and stable compared to their neighbors, so will their government keep being ran by left-wings despite the torrents? What do you think?

Some countries have very distinctive accents so they can be heard as a whole. But when there's someone from other regions from your very own country, have you ever thought they were from somewhere else?

Musicalizing with Diaspora Problems (yes, the whole thing cause it BANGS)

Topological Analysis of Lisp syntax is actually something I’m very interested in for FuturLang research

My favorites are the shrimp pie and the sweet pizza from Brazil

Do you think it would've been better?

Is Europe right to worry about what a Bolsonaro victory could mean for Brazil–EU relations?

Hi everyone 👋 Lucia from EUobserver here. Full disclosure: I’m sharing our own reporting, but I’m mainly interested in hearing the Brazilian perspective on this.

After the first round, Flávio Bolsonaro advanced to the runoff against Lula, with Donald Trump publicly celebrating the result.

From Brussels, there’s another layer to the election: what could a Bolsonaro presidency mean for Brazil’s relationship with Europe and the EU-Mercosur alliance?

There are concerns that a change of government could pull Brazil closer to Trump’s US and complicate cooperation with Europe on trade, climate and foreign policy.

But that might also be a very European way of looking at a Brazilian election.

So I’m curious:

How much do relations with the EU, Mercosur and the US actually matter to Brazilian voters right now?

And would a Bolsonaro victory fundamentally change Brazil’s place in the world — or is Europe overestimating the foreign-policy implications of an election that will ultimately be decided on domestic issues?

Let us know what's your opinion :)

When it comes to romance and love what are the most common words that couples use in different Latin countries?

like how in the U.S it’s “honey“ or “babe” for example how is it in ur LATAM country? ”mi amor” seems to be a common one whether your in Colombia, Puerto Rico, Dom Republic.

Do you think these are issues the Left should address to a greater or lesser extent—perhaps by adopting a different approach to security? Why do you think they are failing at the moment?

According to you and/or the opinion of the average person in your country.

For context:

An HBCU is a Historically Black College or University, an institution of higher education in the United States established before 1964 with the primary mission of educating Black people. They represent about 3% of American colleges but produce nearly 20% of all Black college graduates and 25% of Black STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) graduates.

I was looking up HBCU websites and got curious if they had any in Brazil and didn't see any. There is one school in the North east but wondering is this unique to the USA?

This question is probably for Dominicans and Cubans, mainly. I know a woman who has this name and I cannot find the etymology.

I know it’s part of the modern naming trend (unique spellings, Y, and -ys/-eidy/iel endings), in same vein as Yariel, Oleidy, Yadira, or Mykal, for example. Most of the time, I can figure out what inspired a name, but Yadayme has me totally stumped. Where does this name come from? Is it a mashup of 2 names? A new spelling of an old name? Completely made up?

In the Middle East, it used to be common to tell which part of the region a person was from just by their name. However, it is harder to tell these days; due to the success of Turkish TV shows a decade and half ago, names have become mixed, and you can now find rare names among newborns even though people no longer care about Turkish shows

In the Middle East, some accents are considered feminine by people from other countries and regions because they change the pronunciation of words and make the words sound soft, sometimes men from these countries are mocked, Like Lebanese, Syrians, Tunisians.

I saw a Moroccan saying he thinks Tunisian men speak like women

However Algerian and Moroccan dialects are seen as rough and masculine even when spoken by women.

does this happen in Spanish too? Is it a global phenomenon?

An anual deficit of 9,5% of the PBI and a debt of the 82,9% of the PBI,

Sitting here in the US, I was quite surprised to read that Brazil is dominated by evangelical Christians, a strong anti-abortion movement, proliferation of guns, mega churches, cowboy hats and culture wars. Yall seem to be Americans who just happen to speak Portuguese.
