Etymology

The word 'bronco' originates from the Spanish word 'bronco', which means 'rough' or 'rude', often referring to an untamed horse. Its etymology can be traced back to the early 19th century when American cowboys encountered wild horses in the western United States. The adoption of the term into English reflects the cultural exchange between the Spanish and Anglo-American settlers. Bronco riding became a popular event in rodeos, highlighting the skills required to ride and tame these wild horses. Today, the term embodies the spirit of the American West and is synonymous with cowboy culture.
