bodhaig

bodhaig
body, corpus; from the Scottish bouk, body, trunk, Norse búkr, trunk, German bauch, belly. The Gaelic word has been compared by Fick with English body, Anglo-Saxon bodig, and Murray says it is thence derived, but the d would scarcely disappear and leave the soft g ending now so hard.
