A word originally meaning someone from New England, then the Northern U.S., then the North-Eastern US (those states that were always non-slave states). Now means the moderate type of American that the rest of the world can get along with (even those from the South), as opposed to the people like George W. Bush or Britney "we elected the President, so he must be right" Spears, or, at extremes, the KKK.
American: I don't want any of this "Real Ale". Where's the Budweiser?
Brit: *grimacing* Oh well, at least you're a yank not a redneck.

1.Short for "Yankee"
2.An American from the NORTHERN United States,not a term for all Americans like most British people seem to think.Southerners are called Rebs or Rednecks.Most of the stereotypes posted here by the British pertain to Southerners too,most of us Yanks are pretty liberal.The north and south USA are almost like 2 different countries (they nearly were) and the rest of the world doesn't seem to notice that.You won't find many fat rednecks in Vermont or Rhode Island.

the derogatory word british people call most americans because we kicked their ass in a revolution about 200 years ago. Notice that they havn't won a major war without us supplying them or sending them massive amounts of troops.
British fellow: YOU FUCKING YANK, GO LYE ON UR ARSE AND EAT SOME SHIT YOU WANKER.
Me: Might I remind you we kicked your ass in the american revolution, the war of 1812, and we have bailed your ass out 2 major world wars by providing massive amounts of troops and supplies to help?
British fellow: LOL YOU WANKER ITS ARSE, NOT ASS. FUCKING YANKS!
Me: Would you please shut the hell up you crumpet eating bastard, just do me a favor and shut the hell up, I do agree american english is differant from your english, and trust me I wish I could call it "american" but that won't happen anytime soon. The next time you call me a yank, I bust your fucking rotton teeth outta your mouth, then you WILL have to see a dentist for once in your life you stupid brit.
British fellow: Gee lad, that kinda hurt, you didn't have to go so deep.
Me: Yes, lets stop fighting about who is better and go take out a communist country like China or North Korea.
British fellow: Good idea lad, I shall bring the fighter jets!
Me: Right on
