the one person from spain that i knew told me not to use it. she said it was like using ‘chinaman’
“Spaniard” is the preferred and most-official demonym. IDK what she was on about.

Canada originally, but I worked in Caceres and then Madrid for almost 15 years.
NGL I sat here for like 40 seconds wondering what you call people from Spain before remembering that Spanish can refer to both language and people.
