Borrowed from a Chuvash-type Turkic language before the times of the Hungarian conquest of the Carpathian Basin (at the turn of the 9th and 10th centuries). Compare Turkish boğa, Old Turkic 𐰉𐰆𐰸𐰀 (b¹uq̊¹a /buqa/, “bull”), Mongolian бух (bux). The borrowed form into Hungarian was probably *bika. Perhaps from Proto-Turkic *buka.
