Comment on How do you call someone born in the US besides "American"?

Gringo or gabacho.
AFAIK, the word “gringo” is used by latinos to refer to anyone from other countries, not specifically US citizens. But yeah, definitely gringo
In mexico is pretty much exclusive to people from the US, don’t know about the rest of the continent tho.
In Colombia it’s all foreigners.
From what I’ve seen “gringo” refers to white people
It varies from country to country. Can be either.
