Ladino is a language spoken by some Sephardi Jews. You can read about it on Wikipedia (use the link that I put into the word Ladino). One of the most popular Chanukah songs is sung in Ladino, and it's called "Ocho Kandelikas," or "Eight Candles." It doesn't refer to a group of people; the group of people who speak Ladino are called Sephardim. I've got a few friends who speak Ladino, Spanish, Turkish, and/or Arabic among their families and at their synagogues when socializing, then Hebrew when praying, but English when conversing outside their own circles.

Basically Ladino is to Sephardic Jews what Yiddish is to Askenazi Jews.

For future reference, please don't swear in this guild- there are young people here, and it's not necessary.

I'm going to be a geek and point out that some of the music in Battlestar Galactica (the new one) is sung in Ladino.
