I was under the impression that the plural was common in English, but the singular was more common in Spanish. I could certainly be wrong though.

- kragen 3y agoyeah, in spanish and portuguese, generally america is considered to be one continent, not two. https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Am%C3%A9rica https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Am%C3%A9rica begins, for example, "America is the second largest continent on Earth, after Asia." basically there's a lot of cluelessness going around in this thread by people who've apparently never thought about things like where amerigo vespucci sailed to, what columbus is said to have discovered (by landing where), where the members of the organization of american states are located, where the pan-american highway goes, etc.
