From Latin for "dwelling" to French for "household" to English for "zoo" — the menagerie was originally just a well-managed farm.
A collection of wild animals kept in captivity for exhibition, or a diverse or varied group.
From French ménagerie meaning management of a household or farm, then a place where domestic animals are kept, from ménage meaning household, from Old French mesnage, from Vulgar Latin *mansionaticum from mansio meaning dwelling Key roots: mansio (Latin: "dwelling, staying place").
The word ménage (household) also gave English "manage" and "manager" — originally meaning to handle horses in a manège (riding school). So menagerie, manage, and mansion all trace back to the same Latin word for dwelling. Your household, your zoo, and your management style share an ancestor.
