num cōnfīdentia est, hanc sententiam ēmendātē scrīptam esse? ut ait Meissner[*], 'the continent' Latīnē '(terra) continens' est. igitur 'continens' gens terrārum est (i.e. continentēs omnēs terrae sunt), ergō suspīciōnem hujus sententiae habeō.

Salve, Demetri,
Ut videre potes, "continens" (sive "terra continens)" congregatio est plurimarum terrarum, itaque "terra" huiusmodi pro "patria" dici potest. Hae sententiae significationis eiusdem sunt:
=> America terra non est, sed continens est.
=> America non est terra, sed congregatio terrarum.

...non terra singula, sed terra continens...
