See Εὐρώπη on Wiktionary

Proper name [Ancient Greek]

IPA: /eu̯.rɔ̌ː.pɛː/, /eˈβro.pi/, /eˈvro.pi/, /eu̯.rɔ̌ː.pɛː/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ewˈro.pe̝/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /eˈβro.pi/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /eˈvro.pi/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /eˈvro.pi/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Uncertain, but either from: * εὐρύς (eurús) + ὤψ (ṓps), literally meaning "wide face" (as a description of the beauty of the mythical Europa) or "broad eye" (metaphorically meaning something like "as far as the eye can see") * Semitic origin; compare also Ἀσία (Asía), related to ** Akkadian 𒀭𒌓𒋙𒀀 (ᵈUD.ŠU₂.A /⁠erebu, erbu⁠/, “direction of the setting sun, occident, west”) ** Phoenician 𐤏𐤓𐤁 (ʿrb /⁠ʿereb⁠/, “evening”) ** Hebrew מַעֲרָב (maʿărāḇ, “occident, west”) ** Classical Syriac ܡܥܪܒܐ (maʿrəḇā, “occident, west”) ** Arabic غَرْب (ḡarb, “occident, west”) and غُرُوب (ḡurūb, “setting of the sun”) ** and specifically Aramaic עֲרוּבְתָּא f (ʿărūḇtā, “sunset; eve; Sabbath eve; Friday; Venus, Aphrodite”) of which the absolute state עֲרוּבָא f (ʿărūḇā) in the relevant Northwest Semitic chronolect and isolect would have lacked begedkefet and the second vowel /ɔː/ * From a separate Semitic root related to guarantees and exchanges, found in Arabic عَرَبُون (ʕarabūn, “down payment”), Hebrew בֶּן‑עֲרֻבָּה (ben‑ʿărubbāh, “hostages”), Classical Syriac ܥܪܘܒܐ (ˁārōḇā, “hostages”), stemming from mythology in which Europa is famously abducted; see the story of Cadmus, a figure also with Semitic associations, who seeks after his kidnapped sister.
