hi all i was shopping on GW last nite and i relised there seemed 2 be 2 sub races grot and gretchin.soooooooo
wats the differntce???????????????????????

I thought they were the same thing. Grot is a "nickname" for gretchin.

Agreed with Matt. Unless GW has done (yet another) fluff retcon...

From what I remember from all the fluff, the term grot only came in after Gorkamorka. Until then they where called gretchin.

I always assumed that gretchin was a pluralisation of grot ...

Isn't that "grots" ?

Grots, gretchin, nothing wrong with having multiple pluralisations with the same meaning

I'm sure it helps that Lily this morning declared that the collective noun for a table full of fried breakfasts was "a radish of breakfasts"
Whilst Dylan did a count down from 5 along to numberjacks "Bo,Bo, Bo , Bo ....Bo..BO!!" That fella has got to learn some words.
I also would seek a radish of grots and or gretchi, groteium, grotisuque grotierem

Everywhere except the southlands where it's "grits".

I had to look up what you were on about!

numberjacks fry my brain its like being back on the mushrooms lol

Numberjacks is just the thin end of the wedge where bizarre kids shows are concerned. I love the idea of a radish of cooked breakfasts!
I thought Grots was the collective name for anything smaller than an Ork while still green. where Gretchin were the 40k goblin equivilent.

Thaaaaaaaaaaaats NUMBERWANG!

It goes:
Orks
V
Grots/Gretchin
V
Snotlings
