Etymology
Suggested to be a calque of Ancient Greek στρατηγός (stratēgós) (from στρατός (stratós, “army”) + ἄγω (ágō, “to lead”) + -ος (-os)), from *hari (“army”) + *togō (“leader”) (compare *teuhan (“to lead, pull”)).[1][2] Alternatively inherited from Proto-Germanic *harjatugô, if Old Norse hertogi isn't borrowed from Middle Low German[3].
