電視小說 (拉丁美洲)

Telenovela是一种源自拉丁美洲的电视剧，随后在欧洲、亚洲和其他电视网络间流行开来。该词源自西班牙语的“tele”（即“televisión”或者葡語“ televisão”的缩写，“电视”），以及西班牙语和葡萄牙语^[1]的“novela”（“小说”），中文意译为拉丁美洲電視小說劇^[2]。由此衍生出来的电视剧种类，如菲律宾的teleserye（英语：teleserye）、加拿大魁北克省的téléroman（英语：téléroman）和亚洲、阿拉伯世界的drama，与telenovela都有着相同的形式。

But due to the popularity of the Spanish term, it was adopted in Portuguese-speaking countries, which helped fuel confusion between the novel and novella literary forms ("novela" is the word for "novella" in Portuguese).
