Dutch: griend

Estonian: grinda

German: Grindwal

Icelandic: grind

Russian: гри́нда (grínda)

Swedish: grindval

Ukrainian: гри́нда (hrýnda)

Uzbek: grind

The term is a Faroese invention. A school of pilot whales reminds of a framework (see grind above) in the sea, by swimming very close to each other. More likely the word is related to the English word ground and refers to the whales frequently running aground or easily driven onto ground. Another theory suggests it refers to grinding, scraping or rubbing, in as mating behaviour.On the etymology of Faroese Grind “school of pilot whales” The Faroese term was loaned in many other languages; compare German Grindwal, Danish grindehval or Dutch griend.

The tvøst (meat) and spik (blubber) of the pilot whales
