The word "bouch" is of Old French origin. Its etymology can be traced back to the Old French term "busche", which means "log" or "block of wood". From there, it evolved into Middle French as "bousche" with the same meaning. Eventually, it shifted in spelling to "bouch", and its usage expanded to refer to a cork or stopper, which is its primary meaning today. The word's evolution reflects the gradual changes in pronunciation and spelling that occur over time in language.
