Meso-America, South America
Meso-America refers to a cultural, rather than a geological/physical geography entity. This is how the New Shorter Oxford defines it:
the region of America from central Mexico to Nicaragua, or any of several advanced pre-Columbian cultures which flourished there; loosely Central America.
The prefered spelling in English is Meso-America (hyphenated), according to the Oxford, although the unhyphenated version is also acceptable.
the region of America from central Mexico to Nicaragua, or any of several advanced pre-Columbian cultures which flourished there; loosely Central America.
The prefered spelling in English is Meso-America (hyphenated), according to the Oxford, although the unhyphenated version is also acceptable.

Mesoamerica
Se designa Mesoamérica a la región centro-sureste de México, y la zona norte de Centroamérica, donde florecieron las más importantes civilizaciones
prehispánicas. Desde los olmecas, en lo que hoy es el sur de Veracruz y Tabasco; los mayas en la península de Yucatán, Chiapas, Guatemala, Belice y Honduras;
los mixtecos-zapotecas en lo que hoy es el estado de Oaxaca, los totonacas al norte de Veracruz; los toltecas y aztecas en el altiplano, etc.

The exact same word is used in English - Mesoamerica - except without the accent on e in Mesoamérica
