Interesting. It has its origins In Middle English; bosk, busk, and bush all meant shrub. Where are the Knights who say Ni?

I was wondering about the word's etymology. In Spanish, forest is bosque.

Cool word, Myr.

I also wondered about its origins, because I couldn’t see how it fit with its definition,  so thanks for the further explanations @drpaladin @Carlos Hazday @Myr :thumbup:
