Well, everybody born in the american continent is technically “american” too, including Central and South America. Is there a specific term in english for these people?
Edit: Thanks for all your answers, especially the wholesome ones and those patient enough to explain it thoroughly. Since we (South Americans) and you (North Americans) use different models/conventions of continent boundaries, it makes sense for you to go by “Americans”, while it doesn’t for us.
I like to call them Muricans. Sure, it may sound super similar to “Americans”, but it’s different enough to sorta make things clearer.
I’m joking. This idea is horrible.
Don’t tell me what to do. I come from the land of Ben Franklin
You mean the land of Abe Lincoln? No, not Abraham, I said Abe. Completely different.
Who is this Abe? It sounds like an honest name
It’s a guy from an alternate reality
