Etymology
Γκρουπ is a direct loan from English "group," adopted into spoken Greek in the twentieth century through tourism, music, and later digital chat culture. English "group" itself came through French "groupe" from Italian "gruppo," a word tied to Germanic terms for a round mass or clump. Greek did not adapt the spelling or endings, so the word stays fixed in form. It sits alongside the older native word "ομάδα," which covers the same ground in more formal contexts.
