Hello !
This word might also be found in Albanian "bujar", a nobleman.
There
is a relation to the landowner.
Also "buj" in Albanian means to be somebody´s guest or live
temporarily somewhere, not unlike Swedish "bo", to live. I
don´t know
how these words are related to each-other.
Alvin
[Moeller] the usual explanation is that albanians and
rumanians got it from slavs. In romanian has the same meaning
as in albanian. Such a pitty that thumbulle is not slavic
too:-))
