Congreet

/kənˈɡriːt/ verb

Definition

To greet together; to meet and salute each other in a friendly or formal manner.

Etymology

From Middle English, combining 'con-' (together) and 'greet' (to salute or address), with roots in Old Norse and Germanic languages.

Kelly Says

This archaic word combines 'con-' and 'greet,' so it literally means 'to greet together'—imagine two people approaching each other and greeting at the same time; that's congreeting.
