ABOUT LATINÍCIMA®
What is the meaning of Latinícima®?
The Hispanic Coalition of Small Businesses (HCSB) coined the word Latinícima® from the root word, Latinism, which highlights the richness of Latin American and Hispanic societies and their impact on language and culture.
HCSB has intentionally changed the "S" in Latinísima to a "C" in Latinícima® to encompass the meaning and symbolism of the word Cima.
The Spanish word Cima translates to English as the highest point, mountain top, the summit of a mountain, pinnacle, or a high-pointed rock or mountain. Rumbo a la Cima translates to "heading to the top" in English.
For us at HCSB, the coined word Latinícima® or Latinícimo signifies a strong Latina or Latino who is:
- Heading to the top .... Rumbo a la Cima
- Extending a hand to bring others along
- And, Reaching the Top ... The Pinnacle ... The Highest Point ... Together!
La Coalición Hispana de Pequeñas Empresas creó la palabra Latinícima® a partir de la raíz "latinismo", que resalta la riqueza de las sociedades latinoamericanas e hispanas y su impacto en el lenguaje y la cultura.
HCSB ha cambiado intencionadamente la "S" en Latinísima por una "C", Latinícima®, para abarcar el significado y simbolismo de la palabra Cima.
La palabra española Cima se traduce al inglés como: el punto más alto; la cima de una montaña; la cumbre de una montaña; cima; o una roca o montaña de punta alta.
Para nosotros en HCSB, la palabra creada Latinícima® o Latinícimo® significa una Latina o Latino que está: Alcanzando la cumbre, Rumbo a la Cima... Extendiendo una mano para llevar a otros consigo y, "Alcanzando la cima"... La Cumbre... El Punto Más Alto... ¡Juntos!
