Etymology: < east adj. + German n. As noun partly (in sense A. 1) after German Ostdeutscher (noun) inhabitant of the eastern part of German-speaking Europe (1804 or earlier), inhabitant of East Germany after the Second World War (1945: see note), use as noun of ostdeutsch (adjective: see below), and partly (in sense A. 2) after German Ostgermane member of an East Germanic people (1829 or earlier). As adjective apparently partly (in sense B. 1) after German ostdeutsch of or relating to the east of the German-speaking areas of Europe (beginning of the 19th cent.), of or relating to East Germany after the Second World War (1945: see note), and partly (in sense B. 2) after German ostgermanisch East Germanic adj.
