How do you call someone born in the US besides "American"?
Well, everybody born in the american continent is technically "american" too, including Central and South America. Is there a specific term in english for these people?
Edit: Thanks for all your answers, especially the wholesome ones and those patient enough to explain it thoroughly. Since we (South Americans) and you (North Americans) use different models/conventions of continent boundaries, it makes sense for you to go by "Americans", while it doesn't for us.

If anything we should just rename the continents to remove the confusion.
Or just wait for the secessions to inevitably start rolling in, then the gringos can drop the name. They were second anyways.
