mintgoth: just learned that the word “ferret” is derived from the Latin word furittus meaning “LITTLE THIEF” and that a group of ferrets is called a BUSINESS and i am absolutely pleased with this new knowledge
insomniac-arrest: I am enriched by this knowledge, thank you
I’d always heard the collective noun to be a “parliament of ferrets”.
Sounds just as good
Parliament is for owls
Also rooks.
