Brit-

British.

The first element of British.

Though the abbreviated form Brit for a British person has been known since the beginning of the twentieth century, it was only from the late 1980s that it began to be used in a variety of compound terms relating to aspects of British cultural life, such as Britart, Britculture, Britfashion, Britpop, and Britrock. Terms are often hyphenated, sometimes with the second element capitalised.
