Correct. “Negro” indeed just means black in Spanish. “Negru” also means black in Romanian. So really the word doesn’t really have any harmful/offensive meanings in languages other than English.

Playing Among Us I came across multiple Spanish-speaking people and every time they want to refer to the black crewmate/imposter they say “negro”.
