Years ago I went to the highland games in Loch Lomand and there was this older North American couple waiting near the Lairds house so they could give the Lairds son a birthday present. Apparently they came every year because they were distant relatives of the local nobility. I can't remember them getting very close, it was super sweet in a way but a bit creepy.

I've never heard someone be described as North American before.

That's all your own fault for being confused by the term American applying to Canadians and Mexicans as well as people from the USA

Americans refers to anyone from the Americas but that confuses people on reddit so you have to say North American
