[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I asked my husband, who grew up in Honduras, your question and he immediately asked where you were from. He guessed New York (we are in the Midwest). He thinks he remembers hearing that this is more of a Puerto Rican, Dominican, Spanish speaking island "thing" in the North East. He can't remember where he heard this, but thinks it was in a movie. He's never referred to himself as Spanish. Usually as Honduran, Hispanic, or guess. [/quote] Yeah, I also think this is something common to people from only certain Latin-American countries and in certain US regions. I hear it from Dominicans and Puerto Ricans, mostly. I've never heard, say, someone from Costa Rica or Venezuela refer to themselves as Spanish.[/quote]
