The Spanish word for commonwealth is typically
mancomunidad
.
- ↑
In 1932, the
U.S. Congress
officially back-corrected the former
Anglicization
of
Porto Rico
into the Spanish name
Puerto Rico
.
[5]
It had been using the former spelling in its legislative and judicial records since it acquired the territory. Patricia Gherovici states that both "Porto Rico" and "Puerto Rico" were used interchangeably in the news media and documentation before, during, and after the U.S. conquest of the island in 1898. The "Porto" spelling, for instance, was used in the
Treaty of Paris
, but "Puerto" was used by
The New York Times
that same year. Nancy Morris clarifies that "a curious oversight in the drafting of the
Foraker Act
caused the name of the island to be officially misspelled".
[6]
However, Gervasio Luis Garcia traces the Anglicized spelling to a
National Geographic
article from 1899, after which the spelling was kept by many agencies and entities because of the ethnic and linguistic pride of the English-speaking citizens of the American mainland.
