Etymology
In summary
From Middle High German buoche, from Old High German buohha, from Proto-West Germanic *bōku and *bōkijā (both “beech”). The first West Germanic form corresponds to Old English bōc, Old Frisian bōk, the second to Old English bēċe (English beech), Dutch beuk, Luxembourgish Bich. The Standard German form can continue either variant, in the first case reguarly, in the second with Upper German umlaut hindrance before velar (cf. suchen).
