Americans are often surprised to learn than they aren't "Americans" in Spanish, but something else entirely. Spanish speakers are equally surprised to learn that insisting that Mexicans, Chileans, and Venezuelans are "Americans" in English is wrong. This video is an attempt to remedy this gulf in communication between countries and continents (or is it all just one continent?)

I had a number of audio recording issues in this video, so thanks very much for your patience. If anything I said was unclear due to the sound quality, please feel free to ask in the comments.
