Etimologia (Inglese)

Affine norvegese: bugge

Affine basso tedesco: Bögge

Ereditato da inglese medio: biggen

Affine norse antico: búa

Affine inglese antico: buan

Affine danese: bygge

Affine svedese: bygga

Ereditato da inglese medio: byge

Affine inglese antico: bēow

In summary

Inherited from Northern Middle English big, bigge (“powerful, strong”), possibly from a dialect of Old Norse. Ultimately perhaps a derivative of Proto-Germanic *bugja- (“swollen up, thick”), from Proto-Indo-European *bʰew-, *bu- (“to swell”), in which case big would be related to bogey, bugbear, and bug.
Compare dialectal Norwegian bugge (“great man”), Low German Bögge, Boggelmann.
