        But following Spanish pronunciation, wouldn't that end up sounding something like latinequis? I don't know if there's any precedent for words ending in -nx in Spanish, so it doesn't seem clear how you'd pronounce it otherwise...

        I'd use it if someone told me to, but the majority of Latin Americans I've seen talking about this do seem to prefer latine for that reason and others.

          Yeah if it was Spanish it'd be closer to latinequis.

          It's not really used much outside the US from what I've seen. It's mostly used in the US by bilingual activists. They usually think of it as spanglish and I don't think it was really meant to be a global term (again, just from conversations I've had).

          I think todes is what most people from Latin America use.
