Latino-Latinx Extension

There is a debate about the proper collective noun to use for people with Latin-American heritage in English. The prevailing options include the ethnonyms \"Hispanic\", \"Latino\", and \"Latinx\". Though the terms are commonly used interchangeably, their definitions are different.

\"Hispanic\" is a term that includes only people from Spanish-speaking countries in Latin America and from Spain. It does not include people from Portugal or Brazil.

\"Latino\" is a shortening of *latinoamericano*, or \"Latin American\" in Spanish. It includes people only from Latin-American countries and not from Spain or Portugal.

\"Latinx\" is the gender-neutral version of \"Latino\".

Known limitations of this extension:
- Conversions to \"Latino\" do not include gendered conversions to \"Latina\".
