Cilantro is the herb, coriander (seed) is the spice/dried powder.

That's very much an NA thing. US mostly, but also sometimes in Canada. Coriander is name of the plant.

Indeed. I know "Coriander seeds" and "Coriander green" (Or "leaves"). Chilantro is maybe an American word for some reason?

Cilantro is a Spanish word and Mexican dishes are probably where most Americans are exposed to the food.

Ah, it is a Spanish word. TIL.
