Porteño (English spelling) [Spain]

Japanese: ポルテーニョ(英語表記)porteño[スペイン]
Porteño (English spelling) [Spain]
A derivative of puerto (port), it means "of the port" or "port inhabitants." In South America, it often refers to the citizens of Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina. Since the Spanish colonial period, the city has been important as a trading port, and its citizens came to be called porteños, while the residents of the inland areas were called provincianos. Porteños generally have a high cultural standard and are Western-style, but tend to neglect indigenous elements and traditions, which often causes resentment among the people of the inland areas.

Japanese:
puerto(港)からの派生語で〈港の〉もしくは〈港の住民〉を意味する。南アメリカではアルゼンチンの首都ブエノス・アイレス市の市民を指すことが多い。スペインの植民地時代から同市は貿易港として重きをなし,市民がポルテーニョと呼ばれるようになり,これに対して内陸部の住民はプロビンシアーノprovincianoと呼ばれた。ポルテーニョは一般に文化水準も高く,西欧的だが土着の要素や伝統を軽視しがちであり,たびたび内陸部の人々の反発を招いている。
