Definition
A greyhound dog, especially one with gray coloring in its coat, or an archaic spelling variant of greyhound.
Etymology
Variant spelling of greyhound, where gray replaces the standard spelling grey. The original greyhound name may come from Old English, though the exact origin is debated—possibly from 'Greyg' (an old word for dog) or the dog's color.
Kelly Says
Spelling variations like 'gray' vs 'grey' show English flexibility—both were used for centuries, and greyhound/grayhound is one surviving pair that reminds us spelling wasn't standardized until recently!
