"Lamanite" is the Book of Mormon term for the Bibles "Gentile". It refers 95% of the time to everyone "non-Nephite", aka non-believers. Only maybe some 5% of the time is the term directly referring to Laman/Lemuals group.
Further, according to the Book of Mormon, the "Lamanites" are who were left at the end..... thus therefore, Lamanites are the natives of the America's etc.
