In Mexico, the use of the word "gringo" has been reserved for people from the U.S., [37] especially Anglo Americans, since the end of the 19th century. In Brazil, the word gringo means "foreigner" and has no connection to physical characteristics or specific countries. For example, foreign football players in the Brazilian Championship that come from other Latin American countries are referred to as "gringos" by the sports media [23] [24] and by sports fans. [25] Tourists are called gringos regardless of their ethnic origins (i.e. Latin Americans or people from other regions, like Europe). [26]
