United States of America
Main Entry: United States of America Listen to the pronunciation of United States of America Variant(s): or United States \yu̇-ˈnī-təd-ˈstāts, especially Southern ˈyü-ˌ\ Function: geographical name country North America bordering on Atlantic, Pacific, & Arctic oceans; a federal republic capital Washington area 3,619,969 square miles (9,375,720 square kilometers), population 281,421,906 http://www.merriam-webster.com/dicti...20of%20america |
true.. :D
|
Righto. We are in the Americas, and one country in the Americas is called the United States of America. There are many other countries in the Americas (north and south,) so calling only one of them "America" is a misnomer.
|
Hmm. The americas are North America and South America.
Canada is in North America. And the US is in North America. so to use the term United States OF America IS Proper. |

All your states are belong to us.

I guess nobody is allowed to abreviate anymore then huh? I'm 99% positive anywhere in the world, if you say you're from America, they won't ask which country.
It's like asking for a Kleenex. Who is going to tell you that don't have any Kleenex, but they'll give you this tissue instead? |
US is the abbr of United States which is a variant name (name nevertheless) of USA (an abbr of United States of America).
Someone needs to be checked for OCD or Oppositional Defiant behavior? |
America is not a country , USA is a country :2 cents:
|
Thanks for the info lol.
|
yawn . . .
|
Every where we go, we are referred to as Americans. Not Mexican, not Canadian, not Brazillian, or any of them other places. Americans.
|
this is a stupid debate.. when someone says america it is common sense for someone to know what you are referring to, same with US,USA etc. The world has become lazy and doesn't like to say things to there full capacity like it was first meant. Therefore America is a country, it just isn't the full correct name of the country but people do refer to it as such therefore it's only smart ass' who debate that. DO you call yourself a United States American or an American....
