Pretty sure even Americans know of islands and continents, even if they bin them differently. The distinction is fundamentally arbitrary...

- xiande04 4y agoOkay. If you think that, go ask a random American to point to Oceania on a map. Report back to me when you do. :)
- Clamchop 4y agoDifferent goalpost. :) :) :)
- xiande04 4y agoNot really. If an American doesn't know where Oceania is (and they likely don't), then they are left to assume that Australia is the continent, not an island. Hence, I was providing a counter-example to your dubious claim that "Americans know of islands and continents". Come to think of it... what do you even mean by that? What does it mean to "know of islands and continents"?
