Cavalry Man
Why is an individual in the military called a troop?
S: (n) troop (a group of soldiers)
S: (n) troop (a cavalry unit corresponding to an infantry company)
S: (n) troop, scout troop, scout group (a unit of Girl or Boy Scouts)
S: (n) troop, flock (an orderly crowd) “a troop of children”
This definition comes from Princeton . When I first started hearing (ex) 3 troops were killed I thought it was 3 GROUPS of military men. When did the word troop become singular?
William Safire, the famous Republican pundit and linguist a addressed this a few years ago in his On Language column. See link below.
