a person of Mexican heritage born and living in Texas
a person of Mexican heritage who lives in Texas
Originally a historical term that designated citizens of Mexico born in Texas. This term has once again become popular as a designation among some Mexican Americans and seems to be used especially along the border region to designate a shared Mexican experience and to specify that one is from Texas. Tejana is the feminine form of this word. See Hispanic, Latino/Latina.
