Abstract
The article deals with expressive ethnic nomination in the Mexican national variant of Spanish. It carries out a linguistic and imagological analysis of the ethnophaulism frijolero and the meta-image associated with its reinterpretation in the Mexican national worldview. Particular attention is paid to the development of semantics of the unit under investigation, which depends on ethnic stereotypes. The article concludes that the meta-image can be formed either by means of semantic melioration or deliberate hyperbolization of negative connotations.
