Etymology
Unclear. Main propositions conjure origin:
- Vasmer, Trubačev: From *trь- (“tri-”) + *buхъ (“swelling”), perhaps from Proto-Indo-European *bʰew- (“to swell, to bulge”). Possibly akin to Proto-Slavic *buxyrь (“gut, intestine”) (whence Slovak buchyr (“gut”)), Proto-Germanic *būkaz (“belly”). Prefix, while not entirely clear, likely reflects *trь- (“tri-”), maybe in reference to the compartmentation of some herbivores' digestive tract (cattle, camels, and other ruminants).
- Snoj: From *terbъ (“something stretched or torn up”) + *-uxъ. Possibly akin to Latin strebula (“flesh around the haunch”).
Noun
*trьbűxъ m[1]
- stomach, paunch (typically of animals)
- Synonyms: *břuxo, *puzo
- bowels, intestines, guts
Alternative forms
- *trěbuxъ, *tribuxъ (with widening of prefixial *-ь- > *-i-/*-ě-)
