Etymology

The term 'bowering' originates from the Middle English 'bore' and is related to the Old English 'bลซgan', which means to bend or bow. Its usage has shifted over time, and while it may have formerly described a more extensive scope of actions relating to bending or positioning the body in various ways, it has largely fallen out of common use. The word also connects to other words descriptive of physical posturing, reflecting a time when such actions might have held more cultural significance, particularly in contexts of respect or submission. Today, 'bowering' can be encountered primarily in poetic or literary texts, serving as a stylistic choice to evoke nostalgia or historical imagery.
