In Spanish there is also the word "estadounidense", but unfortunately it's not widely used... I must be the only one who uses it in everyday conversation, since most people say "norteamericano" or just "americano", which I don't like, as I've always felt that I'm American, that is, I was born in the continent called America. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< And how do you like a phrase from one of my old (Soviet-times) texbooks of Spanish: ----- ¿A quiénes explotan los capitalistas yanquis? :-))))))) Yitzik the Poisonous Snakie ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
