Etymology

The word entered Romanian from French and English "euro," the official name chosen in 1995 for the European Union's single currency. The name is a short form of "Europe," picked deliberately as a neutral, pan-European label rather than a word tied to any one nation. Romanian borrowed it as an indeclinable neuter noun, matching how it behaves in most other European languages.
