Afro-Latina 

A woman from or with roots from any spanish speaking country that has both black (African) and spanish ancestry. She has the best of both worlds. She comes in different delicious flavors. Cafe (Celia Cruz), cafe con leche (Zoe Saldana), caramel (Rosario Dawson) and sometimes leche (Mariah Carey). She is sensual, sexy, passionate, has the baddest curves and can dance her culo off. She is a goddess and you are lucky to know her and even luckier to LOVE her. Sometimes, this hottie is sad, because nobody knows she is latina and she has to prove herself with the latino community because of their own racism.
"Wow, Colombia has the most beautiful afro-latinas in the world!"

Afro-Latino

A man from or with roots from any spanish speaking country with both black (African) and spanish ancestry. Sometimes referred to as a blatino or a blaxican (depending on the spanish country of origin). As with an afro-latina, afro-latino's have the best of both worlds. They are sexy, passionate, make great lovers and ladies, if you are ever lucky enough to catch one, you'll find there's nothing better than a brotha who speaks Spanish. They come in many flavors, cafe (Merlin Santana), cafe con leche (Tego Calderon), caramel (Maxwell)and leche.
At times, the Afro-Latino may become very frustrated, because the latino community (which he loves)doesn't recognize him and shows racism. Afro-Latinos take this in stride and continue being the lovers that they are.
Ayyyy, Tego Calderon is fine, I gotta get me an afro-latino como el!

Girl #1:Gurl, I didn't know that brotha spoke Spanish?
Girl#2:Yeah, gurl, he's afro-latino!

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
