RE: The Difference Between an Expat & an Immigrant

in #politics6 years ago

I have often seen people called "expats" (and even more often called themselves expats) when they were indeed immigrants - expecting to live the rest of their life in their (sometimes not so new) country.

An immigrant is an individual who moves to a country first, and looks for a job later,

Not in the definitions I know (Germany), but maybe that is for US?

Sort:  

Ah yeah I worded it badly it was meant to be grouped with the idea of connotation - fixed, thanks
