===Danish=== The word {{lang|da|euro}} is included in the 2002 version of ''[[Retskrivningsordbogen]]'',<ref>{{cite web |title=''euro'' entry in Retskrivningsorbogen |publisher=[[Dansk Sprognævn]] |language=da |url=http://www.dsn.dk/cgi-bin/ordbog/ronet?S.x=0&S.y=0&M=1&P=cent |access-date=17 October 2006 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070927235930/http://www.dsn.dk/cgi-bin/ordbog/ronet?S.x=0&S.y=0&M=1&P=cent |archive-date=27 September 2007 |url-status=dead }}</ref> the authoritative source for the [[Danish language]] (according to Danish law). Two plurals are given, ''euro'' when referring to an amount, and ''euroer'' when referring to coins. Both ''cent'' and ''eurocent'' are mentioned; the plural and singular forms are identical. Danish words of Greek origin containing the sequence ''eu'' are traditionally pronounced with [œʊ̯], e.g. ''Zeus, terapeut, eutanasi, Europa''. However, in the word ''Europa'', a newer pronunciation with [eʊ̯] has gained ground in recent years, but this has not influenced the way ''euro'' is commonly pronounced.{{citation needed|date=January 2014}}
