old world process a process that originated in Europe over a century ago Explanation: This is the general meaning. The process originated in Europe more than a century ago (it might have been many centuries ago) before the great waves of migration to the United States. The expression usually indicates an American frame of reference (Old World--Europe, New World--US). It could refer to brewing, cheesemaking, or what have you. Good luck. |
