Pedantic or Latin American, in my experience; it's not much fun to be forgotten, and I feel their frustration but can't think of a very good solution. "US-American" doesn't really roll off the tongue... Maybe the US could adopt the same ethnonymn as Usa, Japan? :P
- muninn_ 10y agoWhy though? Like what's wrong with being Brazilian or Chilean??
- Findeton 10y agoBrazilians and Chileans are Americans too. Even though they are from another continent.
- muninn_ 10y agoWell they are South Americans then. In my experience (my Brazilian friends at least) they prefer being called Brazilian. Nobody except those with an axe to grind or more time than is good for them care that people from the United States of America are called Americans. I really wish people would just grow up and stop caring about stupid little things like that.
