Where this word comes from

Inherited from Middle Welsh buch, from Proto-Brythonic *bʉx, in turn modified from *bʉ (“cow”) under the influence of other animal names ending with *-x, such as *bux (“goat”), *hux (“pig”), *mox (“pigs”) (compare Breton buoc’h, Cornish bugh), from Proto-Celtic *bāus (“ox”) (compare Middle Welsh bu, Old Irish bó), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *gʷṓws.
