        The term “democrowcy” originates from the Greek words “dēmos,” meaning “common people,” and “crow” from Old English “crawe”, which is imitative of the signature Corvidae cry. (Compare Old Saxon “kraia”, Dutch “kraai”, Old High German “chraja”, German “Kräke”. Also other imitative bird-names such as Greek “krex”, “krekos”.)
