bugle: [14] Bugle originally meant ‘buffalo’ or ‘bull’. It comes via Old French bugle from Latin būculus, a diminutive form of bos ‘ox’ (a relative of English cow). It was used from the early 14th century in the compound bugle-horn, denoting a bull’s horn used either as a drinking vessel or as a hunting horn, and it was not long before bugle took on a separate life of its own in the ‘musical horn’ sense.
