约于1300年,指“猎鹰中不使用的一种鹰”,源自古法语 buisart “猎鹰、下等鹰”,源自 buson 、buison,显然源自拉丁语 buteonem(主格 buteo),一种鹰(“但形成过程不明显”- OED),可能带有 -art 后缀,表示进行某些动作或具有某些品质,带有贬义(参见 -ard)。在新大陆,这个词被扩展到美洲秃鹫(到1830年代)。德·范(De Vaan)说 buteo “可能是拟声词,模仿鹰或秃鹫的叫声”。
啼鹤跳伞
Middle English busard, from Old French, alteration of buison, from Latin buteon, buteo hawk
The first known use of buzzard was in the 14th century
