電視小說 (拉丁美洲)

Telenovela是一種源自拉丁美洲的電視劇，隨後在歐洲、亞洲和其他電視網絡間流行開來。該詞源自西班牙語的「tele」（即「televisión」或者葡語「 televisão」的縮寫，「電視」），以及西班牙語和葡萄牙語^[1]的「novela」（「小說」），中文意譯為拉丁美洲電視小說劇^[2]。由此衍生出來的電視劇種類，如菲律賓的teleserye（英語：teleserye）、加拿大魁北克省的téléroman（英語：téléroman）和亞洲、阿拉伯世界的drama，與telenovela都有著相同的形式。

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).
