2. A Citizen of the United States of America

A new word to replace "American", meaning
adjective:
relating to or characteristic of the United States or its inhabitants.
noun:
1. a native or citizen of the United States.
2. the English language as it is used in the United States; American English.
This replacement is suggested because many think "American" should refer to the landmass known as the Americas, not the country, the United States of America.
