It now takes $1.20 to buy one euro, so that the dollar is less valuable. – The euro has appreciated relative to the dollar: it is now more valuable
Depreciation and Appreciation (cont) Appreciation is an increase in the value of a currency relative to another currency An appreciated currency is more valuable(more expensive) and therefore can be exchanged for (can buy a larger amount of foreign currency $1→$0.90/毛 means that the dollar has appreciated relative to the euro(or e increases).
