“灌木丛”,源自古英语 bysc(在地名中发现),来自西日耳曼语 *busk “灌木丛,丛林”(源头还有古撒克逊语和古高地德语 busc,荷兰语 bosch, bos,德语 Busch)。受到或与古法语(busche “柴火”)和中世纪拉丁语 busca(源头还有意大利语 bosco,西班牙语 bosque,法语 bois),两者可能都来自日耳曼语(比较 Boise)。
在英国殖民地,从1650年代开始用于未开垦的地区。在南非,“乡村”,与城镇相对(1780年); 可能来自荷兰语中的 bosch 同样的意思。作为“树枝挂在酒馆招牌上”的意思,出现于1530年代; 因此有谚语“好酒不需要灌木丛”。 “公共毛发”(尤其是女性的)的意思来自1745年。
beat the bushes(中古英语15世纪中期)是一种唤醒鸟类,使它们飞入其他人正在持网的网中的方法,最初与 beating around the bush 相同(参见 beat(v.))。
Noun (1) Middle English bussh, bosch, buissh "woods, thicket, underbrush, shrub, underbrush concealing a hunter or fighter," later forms (probably assimilated to an Anglo-French variant of *buis, bois "woodland, wood [the material]" with a final hushing consonant) of boske, buske, going back to Old English *busc, going back to Germanic *buska- (perhaps also beside an earlier u-stem *busku-) (whence also Old Saxon -busc in brāmalbusk "bramble bush," Middle Dutch bosch, busch "forest, bunch, bundle," Old High German busc, bosc "shrub, bramble bush, thicket, grove," Old Swedish buske "bush," Old Norse [Norway] buskær, a nickname, probably "the bushy-haired one," Old Icelandic Buski, name for a dog, probably "the bristly one"), of uncertain origin; (sense 2) probably after Dutch bosch in this sense Note: The Germanic pedigree of *buska- is relatively meager for the early periods. Old English *busc is perhaps evident in the place name Wardebusc, Veardebusc (modern Warboys in Huntingdonshire), attested in tenth-century charters, though Ekwall (Concise Oxford Dictionary of English Place-Names) took it as of Scandinavian origin. The Old High German forms are attested only in glosses from the twelfth century or later. An earlier opinion, propounded in Skeat and the Oxford English Dictionary, first edition, was that the Germanic words were borrowed from "Late Latin"; however, Latin boscus "wood, woodland"—the form buscus is less frequent—is not attested before the early eighth century. The genuine depth of Germanic attestation for *buska- and congeners was thoroughly explicated by Johannes Hubschmied in "Romanisch-germanische Wortprobleme I. Zur Geschichte von bois, bûche (mit Berücksichtigung der Ortsnamen)," Vox Romanica, Band 29 (1970), pp. 82-122, 283-302. There now seems little question that the etymon is Germanic, and that corresponding Romance words are borrowed from Germanic. Note that beside *busk- a form *bosk- is evident in Middle English and elsewhere, especially Romance. Hubschmied explains *busk- as an outcome in an original u-stem, with *bosk- resulting from lowering before a non-high vowel in the next syllable; alternatively, the -u- could simply result from failure of lowering. Also widespread in Middle English, especially east midland and northern, and in early Scots, are forms without palatalized sk, as bosk(e), buske (compare bosky), which have been attributed both to Old Norse and to Anglo-French bosc.
