Morphology

aggroup = group (semi-transparent) = ag + group

Formed by adding the non‑productive prefix 'ag-' to 'group' (a borrowing/assimilation from forms like French agrouper), so the meaning is predictable but the prefix is not familiar to most learners.

Etymology

Aggroup can be seen as ag- meaning 'to' or 'toward' plus group, so it literally means 'to make into a group'. A helpful image is of people or things moving toward each other to form a group, which is why aggroup means to bring things together.
