Noun
bucca (plural buccas)
- mouth
Latin
Etymology
Uncertain. Celtic origin is suspected due to similarity with beccus (“beak”), names like Gaulish Buccus, Bucc?, Bucci? as well as the appearance of words bocca and boca (of unknown meaning) on the Larzac tablet. IEW compares it with Proto-Germanic *pukkô (“bag, pouch”), from Proto-Indo-European *bew, *b?ew- (“to swell, puff”), whose initial b- would point to a substrate or imitative origin. Compare also English puke, German fauchen.
