/Sounds like "mah" (as in "mark") + "leen" (as in "lead") + "CHEES" (as in "cheek") + "tah" (as in "tar")/
Someone who prefers foreign things over their own country's culture, especially American products, music, or trends. The word comes from La Malinche, the indigenous woman who served as Hernán Cortés' translator during the Spanish conquest of Mexico, and it carries a deep cultural sting of betrayal and selling out your own people.
“You're such a sellout, always buying American brands when you could support Mexican ones.”
“They call him a malinchista because he only listens to music in English.”
