We lived in Puerto Rico for a number of years and there were lots of discussions about what Gringo means and where it originated. Lots of opinions. Tracing the facts it came down to a word used a very long time ago in Spain meaning anyone whose native tongue was not Spanish. Everyone puts their own spin on it but as near as I can tell that is where it came from.
