Etymology

The term "Euro-American" is a compound word formed by combining "Euro-" (a prefix derived from "Europe") and "American" (relating to the Americas, particularly the United States). The prefix "Euro-" originates from the Latin "Europa," itself borrowed from Greek "Εὐρώπη" (Eurṓpē), while "American" traces back to the Latin "Americānus," derived from the name of explorer Amerigo Vespucci. The compound reflects the blending of European and American identities, often used in discussions of transatlantic relations, diaspora, or cultural hybridity.
