Oriental - English editing

The term oriental has an out-of-date feel when used to refer to people from the Far East. It tends to be associated with a rather offensive stereotype of the people and their customs as exotic and inscrutable.In US English, Asian is the standard accepted term in modern use;in British English, where Asian tends to denote specifically people from the Indian subcontinent, it is better to use precise term such as Chinese, Japanese, and so forth.
