Origin

Middle English (originally 'a person who sold things in the gross' (i.e. in large quantities)): from Old French grossier, from medieval Latin grossarius, from late Latin grossus 'gross'.

engross from Late Middle English:
Both engross and gross (Middle English) come ultimately from the Latin word grossus ‘large’. Engross comes from the Latin phrase in grosso ‘wholesale’ and originally meant ‘to buy up the whole of a commodity in order to sell it at a monopoly price’. It is also linked to Middle English grocer—originally a person who sold things ‘in the gross’ or in large quantities. See also retail

Rhymes
