7 Jul 2009In parts of Latin America, calling someone negrito(a) can be a term of endearment however, I doubt that was the intention of Chancellor of Honduras, Enrique Ortez, in this interview. Although, I don’t know if the subtitled translation is exactly accurate either. Given how Ortez is playing up President Obama’s ignorance on Latin America in general, and specifically his knowledge of Honduras, I would be more likely to translate the use of “negrito” as the N word.
