Latinos (and Latinas) refers to men and women from Latin America (Mexico, Central and South America) or whose ancestry is Latin American. "Hispanic" is a broader category than Latino (it includes Puerto Ricans, Cubans and other Spanish-speaking people) but they are often used interchangeably.

any person who is of hispanic extraction, that is the general consensus, of the dictionary, however it is also used as a broad term for many non hispanic cultures by those seeking to be derisive
about a persons heritage.
