I’m a Spanish person living in the Netherlands for already almost 9 years. In one hand at some point in these last years, I started to feel like I don’t belong in Spain anymore, and on the other hand, I think I’ll never feel fully integrated in NL. Any thoughts? Advice? Someone feeling the same?
Sorry, I thought most everyone assumed “America” equated to the (supposedly) “United States of America” (which is the answer to your question) unless specified otherwise.
No, that would be very offensive to the rest of the continents’ countries
Interpreting “I live in America” as a continental reference makes you the exception in my experience. If I lived in one of those other countries on either American continent, I likely would have said the name of the country instead of the name of the continent (let alone without specifying which one).
Honestly fully expect you’re trolling, but I’ll play nice nonetheless.
No. Try living in South America. We all consider ourselves Americans.
And if you say “America bombed Iran” or something, we get pissed. Because we had nothing to do with that war.
Your experience seems very ethnocentric.
