America

Oh, which countries?

U.S.

Sigh.

I can see how this must have been confusing for you, given that the word "America" is generally not used to refer to a particular country.

[–] tux0r@feddit.org 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Precisely. Just like “Europe” is a different thing than “France”.

Indeed, I can see how this must be the very first time that you have ever seen someone use the word "America" to refer specifically to the "United States", due to how rarely this is done, which threw you off.
