Tapatío

Tapatío is a Mexican Spanish colloquial term for someone from downtown Guadalajara in the state of Jalisco, Mexico's second largest city. It is also used as an adjective for anything associated with Guadalajara or the highlands of Jalisco.[1]

Etymology

The word derives from the Nahuatl word tlapatiyōtl, the name of a monetary unit in pre-Columbian times which became most closely associated with the region in which today's Guadalajara is situated.[1]
