Hottentot - English editing.

Hottentot is first recorded in the late 17th century and was a name applied by white Europeans to the khoikhoi group of peoples of South Africa and Namibia. It is now regarded as offensive with reference to people and should always be avoided in favour of khoikhoi or the names of the particular peoples, such as the Nama. The only acceptable modern use for Hottentot is in the names of animals and plants, such as the Hottentot cherry.
