Did you know that greg is Latin for “flock or herd”? Yeah, neither did I. 😉 But that then makes sense when we look at some of the words that have greg as their root:
Congregate – to come together as a group
Segregate – to separate from a group
And then the one that got my attention – gregarious. I wouldn’t have thought that one so closely related, I admit. Until we consider that it means “someone who enjoys being with a group of people, the company of others.”
So there we have it. And now you can start calling that Greg you know “flock” or “herd” and see what he says. 😉
