A small African antelope with short horns, also called a steenbok or grysbok.
From Afrikaans 'bos' (bush) and 'bok' (buck/antelope), literally 'bush buck.' The term emerged in South African Dutch during colonial times to describe animals found in scrubland.
The Afrikaans language brilliantly combines words to create precise animal names—'bosh' combined with 'bok' instantly tells you what kind of animal and where it lives, which is why South African languages have such specific wildlife vocabulary.
