Word origin
The word 'bugle' originated from the Middle English word 'bugle' which came from the Old French word 'bugle' meaning 'wild ox'. The association with the musical instrument likely comes from the fact that the bugle's shape resembles the curved horns of wild oxen. Bugles have been used for centuries in military settings for signaling and communication purposes.
