  • How to Configure Euro Sign Symbol to Show Whenever Key Combination Is Pressed on Debian Linux
    Walking in Light with Christ - Faith, Computing, Diary Articles & tips and tricks on GNU/Linux, FreeBSD, Windows, mobile phone articles, religious related texts http://www.pc-freak.net/blog How to configure Euro sign symbol to show whenever key combination is pressed on Debian Linux Author : admin Today I realized that I have no standard way to make the Euro sign on my Linux. I'm a using a normal notebook qwerty keyboard on my Thinkpad and a Debian Linux. For Microsoft Windows there are plenty of keyboard combinations to make the Euro sign to appear on the screen. In Windows; 1. On UK Keyboard the euro sign shows when AltGr (Right Alt Button) + 5 is pressed. 2. On US keyboard the euro sign is invoked via keyboard combination; AltGr (Right Alt) + 5 3. On all kind of keyboards in Windows the Euro sign is visualized by ; holding Alt and typing 0128 : However in my GNOME on Linux the universal way to insert the euro sign by holding alt with 0128 did not worked out. I've found plenty of things related to how the euro sign could be produced on Linux, most of the info I found however didn't gave me a clue how can I achieve this simple task. At that time I've found on a forum on the net, that in Gnome the euro sign producing can be configured via GNOME's Control Panel So to assign a keyboard configuration which will be able to produce the euro sign; 1.

  • 5 Euro: the Career of a European Neologism in German Press Texts (1995-1999)
    Published in: Musolff, Andreas et al. (eds.): Attitudes Towards Europe. Language in the unification process. Aldershot/Burlington (USA)/Singapore/Sydney: Ashgate, 2001. pp. 113-147. 5 Euro: The Career of a European Neologism in German Press Texts (1995-1999) DIETER HERBERG Introduction As part of the larger topic of ‘Attitudes Towards Europe’, this chapter deals with the sub-topic of the European monetary union. It will focus on the career of the name for the common currency adopted by the members of the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) - Euro - and its rendition in German press texts from 1995 to 1999. We have chosen a lexicological approach starting with the competing designations of the expressions based on the currency name Euro, analysing the word formations appearing with this neolexeme as well as its collocations in three chronological sections. The aim is to demonstrate the communicative power behind the various linguistic realisations of the theme word Euro: Not only is it regarded merely as the name for the common currency of the members of the EMU; instead, on a larger scale it may act as a crystallisation nucleus towards the concept of an integrated Europe. This aim is reflected in the structure of the chapter: We will first outline the factual background as necessary for the understanding of the subject; secondly, we will explain the methods. Thirdly, we will describe the grammatical and morphological properties of the lexeme Euro. The final part contains the analytic and interpretative parts and presents the lexical evidence for each of the chronological sections. 113 1 14 Facts European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) Although a full rendering of the history of European integration in all its aspects would exceed the scope of this chapter, let us take a quick glance at the development of the European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) and its stages, the introduction of the Euro within the framework of the EMU so far being the biggest event in the history of European integration.
