易混淆词

Indigenous
EN: 'Indigenous' is a general term for native peoples of any region; 'Indian' specifically refers to people from India or (historically) Native Americans.
zh: 'Indigenous'（原住民）是泛指任何地区土著人民的通用术语；'Indian'（印度人/印第安人）则特指来自印度的人或（历史上）美洲原住民。
Native American
EN: 'Native American' is the preferred modern term for indigenous peoples of the Americas; 'Indian' in this sense is considered outdated or offensive by many.
zh: 'Native American'（美洲原住民）是当今对美洲土著人民的首选现代用语；在此语境下，许多人认为使用'Indian'已过时或具有冒犯性。

拼写提示

EN: Always capitalized as it is a proper adjective/noun derived from a proper noun. Do not confuse 'Indian' (relating to India or Native Americans) with 'indian' in lowercase, which is non-standard.
zh: 始终大写，因为它是源自专有名词的专有形容词/名词。不要将首字母大写的'Indian'（与印度或美洲原住民有关）与小写的'indian'混淆，后者是不规范的写法。
