Yokel is one of several derogatory terms referring to the stereotype of unsophisticated country people. The term is of uncertain etymology and is only attributed from the early 19th century. Yokels are depicted as straightforward, simple, naïve, and easily deceived, failing to see through false pretenses. They are also depicted as talking about bucolic topics like cows, sheep, goats, wheat, alfalfa, fields, crops, and tractors to the exclusion of all else. Broadly, they are portrayed as unaware of or uninterested in the world outside their own surroundings.

  • Paleto es un término, generalmente despectivo, usado para referirse a las personas de pueblo y zonas rurales, que responderían a un estereotipo de simplicidad y falta de sofisticación, con una jerga y costumbres propias. (es)
  • Un péquenaud (orthographié également péquenot ou plus rarement « pecnot »), aussi appelé « plouc » ou « cul-terreux », est un terme péjoratif employé pour décrire le stéréotype du campagnard simple ou rustre dans le but de s'en moquer. Le mot provient probablement de pequeño (« petit » en espagnol). En gascon, on parle de picabosics, picabodics ou picatalòs. Toutes les formes du mot dériveraient du latin pagus (village) ; le suffixe étant formé sous l'influence de « croquenot ». (fr)
