High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The term Yankee, sometimes shortened to Yank, has a few related meanings, often referring to someone either of general United States origin or more specifically, within the U.S., to people of New England origin or heritage. Its meaning has varied over time. Originally the term referred to residents of New England of colonial English descent, as used by Mark Twain in A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (1889). As early as the 1770s the British often used the term for any American. In the 19th century Southerners used the term to refer to any Northerner who was not a recent immigrant from Europe. Thus a visitor to Richmond, Virginia, in 1818 commented, "The enterprising people are mostly strangers; Scotch, Irish, and especially New England men, or Yankees, as they are called." Outside the United States, Yank or Yankee is a slang term, sometimes but not always derogatory, for any U.S. citizen.
