One rather fanciful theory traces its origin to the Mexican-American War of 1846-48 and the song "Green Grow the Rushes-oh", supposedly sung by the American troops. According to another theory it is a corruption of griego or "Greek", in the sense of anything foreign and unintelligible, as in the English expression "it's all Greek to me".* * *I- ga adjetivoa) (AmL fam & pey) gringo, foreign ( of or relating to a gringo II a))b) (Andes fam) ( rubio) fair-hairedII- ga masculino, femeninoa) (AmL fam & pey) ( extranjero) gringo, foreigner ( from a non-Spanish speaking country); ( norteamericano) Yank (colloq & pej), Yankee (colloq & pej)b) (Andes fam) ( rubio) (m) fair-haired boy/man; (f) fair-haired girl/woman* * *= gringo.Nota: Término peyorativo.Ex.
