[QUOTE]Originally posted by alTakruri: [QB] [b]SIDEBAR[/b] I'd always considered Asiatic to be a pejorative [QUOTE][i]Avoid any terms that may give offense to a particular nationality or group. Many pejorative terms are considerably more subtle than those given above. For instance, Asiatic means the same thing as Asian, but is considered insulting by most Asians (a fact recognized even by Webster's).[/i] [URL=http://www.idrc.ca/en/ev-105658-201-1-DO_TOPIC.html#philos]International Development Research Centre[/URL][/QUOTE]but this no longer seems to be the case since there are organizations in Asia (presumably run by Asians not colonials) employing Asiatic in their titles.
