Oprindelse

Ordet horde stammer oprindeligt fra det tyrkiske ord ordu, som betyder hær eller lejr. Ordet blev senere lånt ind i russisk som орда (orda), hvor det betyder en stor gruppe eller samling af personer, især en nomadegruppe eller et stammefolk. På engelsk blev det til horde og bruges stadigvæk til at beskrive en stor, flydende gruppe eller mængde mennesker eller dyr.
