== Name == The Gronks refer to themselves in the series as the Presbyterians, [this name being phonetically similar to their own word for their species, which is never spoken [ unless it is ] . When studying the earth's past, the Gronks stumbled upon the Greek word πρεσβύτερος (presbyteros), meaning “elder," and, noting that Greek and Latin were still used and prevalent in human culture in the present, decided to use it when announcing themselves. It was thought that this was a beautiful coincidence, because it indicated that the existence of Gronks stretched far back beyond that of humans. Any intimidating effect this might have had backfired when, upon their arrival to Earth, the Gronks learned that the word Presbyterian meant something entirely different in the present day. Humans, who had already begun referring to the aliens as Gronks due to [ ? ], made no effort to discard the moniker.]
