Selected source glosses provide context, not a complete modern definition inventoryCombining form of Europe. · Combining form of European Union. · Denominated in a currency other than that of the country in which it is issued.
Shortened unetymologically from Europe or Europo- in compounds. 20th-century formation, perhaps echoing terms like Afro-, Indo-, Sino- etc. An early attestation is the 1911 title The "Euro-Asian" or "Anglo-Indian", but the word Eurasian is attested in English from 1844. In finance, the term is a generalisation of Eurobond, which originally referred to bonds denominated in dollars but issued in Europe.
