Revisiting the issue of what to call people from the "United States." They are only "of" America, in the genitive case. A Canadian and a Mexican are Americans, indeed everyone from the Americas is an American. Which leaves a problem. It seems for some reason no one ever named the people of the United States. How odd. Well ChatGPT suggested "Statians" which I prefer to my previous attempt: Statis (after the United Arab Emirates).
