Also, a person from DF will often be referred to as a Chilango(a) which is similar to "Gringo" as it can be awkward to use. I find it better to avoid
use with strangers and often with friends as it can be insulting/non-insulting depending on context, use, person, mood, etc..
| a bit more trivia. i have it on good authority that "chilango/a" refers to folks from "the provinces" that end up in df. one born there is a "capitalino/a."![:P](./images/smilies/tongue.gif)
chilangos have a reputation in mexico similar to the reputation of new yorkers in the good old usa. rude, obnoxious, and always in a hurry. |
