Etymology: From Proto-Baltic *bu- (with an extra onomatopoeic č(a), suggesting the sound of kissing), from Proto-Indo-European *bu- (“lip”). Some researchers suggest borrowing from Germanic; the majority opinion is that this word was not borrowed. Cognates include Lithuanian bùčius, bučinỹs, Belarusian бу́ся (búsja), Bulgarian бу́зя (búzja, “cheek”), Polish buzia (“mouth; face; kiss”), Ukrainian бу́зя (búzja, “mouth”), Middle Low German bützen, German bussen (“to kiss”) (dialectal pussen), Swedish puss (“kiss”), Irish bus (“lip”), Albanian buzë (“lip”), Latin bucca (“mouth”).
