I have read Portuguese is a latin language so why isnt it consdiered latino then?? and im not from portugal just of portuguese descent...

Answer 1

It depends, because different people ascribe different meanings to "latino". Portuguese is a Romance language and as such, is latino. So, in the scheme of things as far as language and being from Iberia goes you're latina.
But many people think of "Hispanic" = "latina". Spanish-speaking (or descended from Spanish Speakers), coming from Latin America (México, Central and South Americas) and usually now living in the US. (Shakira, Antonio Banderas, Salma Hayek)
And some people descended from Portuguese do get benefits based on "Hispanic" heritage. I know someone who copped my grandfather's Portuguese surname to get into a school (she was German/Irish).
So, some people might think you are a latina.

Answer 2

no, it it my understanding that the Portuguese people descend from the Lusos tribe which were the southern most Celtic tribe. (The Romans called Portugal Lusitanea). And since the Portuguese language is not Spanish, you don't qualify for any benefits aimed at Hispanic people. And racially, you are as connected to the Irish and Scots as much as the Spanish.

I might instead pass forwards and discover the quickest PC to be had, along side any imperative program, like home windows 7, so all of the drivers might paintings for the hardware, then I might fortunately convey it again and use it for a long time.

Making it feasible to honestly avoid your possess beginning. however most effective on that timeline... hehh hehhhh =) That might imply if I went into the longer term now and learned I had no youngsters there, it might be ok for the reason that I might be at the unsuitable time line, my youngsters might be on a further one. =] I feel it's feasible to time journey, we simply are not able to attain it. Oh and assembly your spouse and children is an overly very unhealthy factor, the whole thing you difference shifts you additional away out of your long-established time line, so its exceptional to hinder assembly spouse and children. Unless... you haven't any purpose of having again to long-established dwelling.. =[
