«Hispanique» (adjectif et nom) signifie d'abord «qui a trait à l'Espagne» pour devenir plus spécifiquement le «citoyen des États-Unis originaire d'un pays latino-américain ou des Antilles». «Hispano-Américain» lie d'abord l'Espagne et l'Amérique, avant de signifier davantage l'Amérique de langue espagnole. Dans l'usage, on accorde à «Hispanique» le sens d'«Américain originaire d'un pays latino-américain», et à «Hispano-Américain», le sens d'«Américain de langue espagnole». Mais, la distinction demeurant très ténue entre ces deux termes, aussi retrouve-t-on, au dictionnaire, les deux notions sous une même entrée. 3, record 1, French, - Hispanique
