    ménage

    /meɪˈnɑːʒ/
    noun
    The members of a household.

    Origin
    Middle English: from Old French menage, from mainer ‘to stay’, influenced by Old French mesnie ‘household’, both ultimately based on Latin manere ‘remain’.

    ==========

    The family was large and multi-generational. Because grandma was from France, Bobby called them the ménage à treize. He didn't count the dogs or cats, goats or horses.
