When is a Euro "€" Not a Euro?

[jtexas]

In Latvia, when it will be an Eiro (pronounced I row). The sound "eu" doesn't exist in their language.<br /><br />In Malta it'll be spelled "ewro" because they aren't allowed to use e and u together.<br /><br />Slovenia wants to call it "evro" don't ask me why.<br /><br />Followup question: why do we say "a Euro", but "an Eiro"?<br /><br />Here's a tip:<br />alt-0128 = € Euro<br />alt-155 = ¢ Cents (or try alt-0162)<br />alt-156 = £ Pounds (or try alt-0163)<br />(at least, they are on my USA-English keyboard)
