57 hombre
(Sp. model spelled same [ómbre] < Latin hominem 'man')1) New Mexico: 1846. An individual of Mexican or Spanish ancestry. The DARE notes that this usage is somewhat old-fashioned.2) Southwest: 1854. By extension from (1), any male. It is often used jocularly or colloquially. Watts, quoting Adams, indicates that it is often used with an adjective, as in big hombre, good hombre, tough hombre, or bad hombre. Both Adams and Blevins say that it sometimes, but not always, denotes a man of low character. Spanish sources gloss it as a general term for a man.
