I don't think so - except for the German term "Indogermanisch" (Indo-German=
ic) to describe the East-West borders of that fictive 
language family. This is not too precise since the Western border maybe is =
not designated by the Germanic (Iceland???) but by the 
Celtic (Gaelic) language group. Yet, "Indoeuropäisch" still isn't too commo=
n a term in German.
