Specialized usage
Australia
Main article: Anglo-Celtic Australian
In Australia, “Anglo” is used as part of the terms Anglo-Australian and Anglo-Celtic, which refer to the majority of Australians, who are of English and/or Scottish, Welsh or Irish descent.
Canada
In Canada, and especially in Canadian French, the term anglophone is widely used to designate someone whose everyday language is English, as contrasted to francophone whose everyday language is French and allophones, those with a different mother tongue. In Quebec, the word refers to English-speaking Quebecers in both English and French. Anglo-Metis is also sometimes used to refer to a historical ethnic group.
Israel
Immigrants from English-speaking countries are sometimes referred to as Anglos. However this term is problematic,[citation needed] as it lumps together immigrants from the diverse cultures of the United Kingdom, Australia, South Africa, the USA and Canada under one apparently culturally homogeneous umbrella and assumes a common interest based on language and an undefined “Anglo-Saxon” culture.
New Zealand
Anglo in New Zealand refers to anyone who is of British Isles (Anglo-Celtic) ancestry, although the more popular term for them, as well as for any New Zealander of European origins, is Pkeh, a Mori term used by the indigenous Polynesian people.
Scotland
Main article: Anglo-Scot
In Scotland the term Anglo-Scot, often shortened to “Anglo”, is used to refer to people born in England with Scottish ancestry, or people born in Scotland with English ancestry.
Southern Africa
Main article: Anglo-African
In South Africa, Anglo-South African[citation needed] is used for predominantly British-descended, English-speaking white people, who are contrasted with the Dutch-descended Afrikaners. Use of Anglo occurs elsewhere in former British colonies in Africa which have sizable British communities, including Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, and Kenya. However, the term “Anglo” is more heavily used in South Africa than in these other countries because of Apartheid and the importance it placed on race.[citation needed]
United States
Main article: Anglo-America
In some parts of the United States Anglo-American is shortened to Anglo and applied to White Americans who are not of Hispanic or Latino origin, and sometimes to those who are not of French origin. However, it is not a universally accepted term and is considered inaccurate, or even offensive, by some White Americans.
