Summary/Abstract: The process of accession to the European Union had a wide influence in all the political, economic and cultural life of our country. The present article aims to investigate the changes recorded in Romanian, a new corpus of neologisms which was created and a new terminology of the EU community called eurojargon. The terms included in this terminology, those that begin with the prefix euro – the acronyms and shortenings are among the most common. Relatively new, the concept Eurojargon combines the words which express the language policy of the Union. Some elements of the Eurojargon may raise difficulties when translating and using them.
