Etymology
The Modern Greek word 'οδηγός' meaning 'guide' derives from the Ancient Greek 'ὁδηγός' (hodēgós), which also means 'guide' or 'leader'. This is a compound of 'ὁδός' (hodós), meaning 'way' or 'path', and 'ἄγω' (ágō), meaning 'to lead'. The term has maintained its core meaning related to leading or guiding along a path.
