Attested in English since 1545, from French troupe (back-formation of troupeau, diminutive of Medieval Latin troppus "flock") and Middle French trouppe (from Old French trope (�band, company, troop�)), both of Germanic origin from Frankish *thorp (�assembly, gathering�), from Proto-Germanic *�urp? (�village, land, estate�), from Proto-Indo-European *treb- (�dwelling, settlement�). Akin to Old English �orp, �rop (�village, farm, estate�) (Modern English thorp), Old Frisian thorp, Old Norse �orp. More at thorp.
