If someone is from the United Staes, what is the nationality in Spanish.

Question

Ella es americano.(Is that correct?)
Thank you

Answer 1

Ella es estadounidense. I think this is correct not the other, right??

Answer 2

NO its (Ella es americana.)

Answer 3

Julian, yours is alright. The word "americana" is a wrong translation.

Answer 4

And when I said it was right, I meant the translation in your second post. "Estadounidense" is the right word.

Answer 5

OR "Ella es norteamericana." People say: "Ella es americana" but that could mean centroamericana, sudamericana, etc.

Sra

Answer 6

Thank you!

Answer 7

SraMcGin, si me permite decirle, "norteamericana" se pudiera referir igualmente a alguien de Canada. Norteamerica no es exclusiva de Estados Unidos.
